It reminds me of those bird videos that Cornell makes.
Now that’s one amazing bird. Where was this taken? And how do you know the location of the birds? do you have a a guide?
This video, and photographs, were taken along the Disposal Road. On the left side of this page, you will find NJMC DIRECTIONS to various birding sites in the area, Disposal Rd being one of them. If you travel along that road, you should be able to see American Kestrels either flying over the landfill or perched on the trees, poles, black pipes (area close to the “red dumpster” being most popular). Be patient. If this is your first visit to the DeKorte Park, don’t limit yourself to the Disposal Road. Much more awaits you at the park.
Don’t forget binoculars!
