Over the winter my wife and I parked in the North parking lot at Discovery Park and as soon as we walked out of the parking lot onto Texas Way, across from the restrooms, we noticed the silence. That area is always thick with bird calls so we suspected a raptor, an owl we hoped. It took us less than a minute to find it - but to our surprise it was an American Kestrel sitting in a tree not 25 yards off the road. When we finished our birding outing, the kestrel was gone and the rest of the birds had started up again.
