American Kestrels
MANHATTAN — UPPER EAST SIDE
Images by BEN CACACE
The image above is an animation of 22 stills taken on Saturday 12-April-2008 from 6:03:20 — 6:03:32 EDST.
The pair has appeared in the area for the current breeding season. The nest location has not been found yet. As far as I know this area has not hosted a kestrel pair for at least the past 11 years since I've been living here.
Here's a map of various perches used by the kestrels. The location of the antenna in the above image is #1 on the map.
The animation is set to run twice since reloading (Ctrl+R) the web page doesn't always work.

Nice work!
Thanks! Here's a link to an uncompressed version of the event which is about 4 times the size of the one on the blog:
