On the farm where my cousins live, I met this young kestrel, apparently quite used to dealing with humans, because my cousin Tomás found him sick and he was curing him with natural remedies until he reached this state that you see here. Among various ailments, he had a severe infection in one of his claws that caused him to lose a finger, but fortunately when he was ready to leave, I was there to witness his farewell and document it.
En la finca donde viven mis primos, me encontré con este joven cernícalo, aparentemente bastante acostumbrado al trato con humanos, porque mi primo Tomás lo encontró enfermo y lo fue curando con remedios naturales hasta que llegó a este estado que ven aquí. Entre varios males, tenía una infección severa en una de sus garras que le hizo perder un dedo, pero afortunadamente cuando estuvo listo para partir, yo estuve ahí para presenciar la despedida y documentarla.
Thanks for the opportunity!
