That's the question about the flying ability of this adult female kestrel. OLIVE arrived at IBR with a fractured left wing but as it was repairable, Dr. Pedersen did so. That was about two months ago and this morning I put her into a larger enclosure so she could exercise and get stronger. Even before the pin was removed she was almost flying in her smaller cage. The minute I put her in this room she flew to the side of the wall and hung there until I quickly slipped away. She has a bit of a droop in the wing but that should improve to about normal as she gains strength.
