Join us at the Dodgeville Public Library for a presentation on North America’s smallest falcon, the American Kestrel! Landowners across the state have been working with Southern Wisconsin Bird Alliance to create habitat for these declining birds to survive and thrive. Learn all about the ecology, life history, and status of this small but mighty raptor, and how you can make a difference for their survival!

Learn more about our Kestrel Nest Box Monitoring & Banding Program here.
