Kestrel Feather Print

North America’s littlest falcon, the American Kestrel packs a predator’s fierce intensity into its small body (about the size of a morning dove) It's one of the most colorful of all raptors: the male’s slate-blue head and wings contrast elegantly with his rusty-red back and tail; the female has the same warm reddish on her wings, back, and tail. Hunting for insects and other small prey in open territory, kestrels perch on wires or poles, or hover facing into the wind, flapping and adjusting their long tails to stay in place. Kestrels are declining in parts of their range; providing next boxes has helped and many can be seen around the Pioneer Valley. 

Nepalese handmade paper beautifully complements the detailed photographic feathers individually printed by photographers Dennis + Roy Barloga in their Northern California studio. 

* Paper sourced from women's cooperatives in Nepal - 100% handmade using local raw materials, simple technology + ancient skills. 

* 9x14"
