The Macbride Raptor Project is a nonprofit organization devoted to the preservation of Iowa's raptors and their natural habitats. Their goals are the rehabilitation of sick and injured raptors, educational programs for the public and field research of Iowa's native birds of prey. http://recserv.uiowa.edu/Apps/Programs/MacbrideRaptorProject.aspx Today was my lucky day! I was invited to enter the flight and rehabilitation section of the Raptor Center to photograph this Kestrel as he was prepared to be taken back to the location he was found and released. What an honor this was for me. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
