Mauritius kestrel

The Mauritius kestrel (''Falco punctatus'') is a bird of prey from the family Falconidae endemic to the forests of Mauritius, where it is restricted to the southwestern plateau's forests, cliffs, and ravines.
It is the most distinct of the Indian Ocean kestrels. It colonized its island home to evolve into a distinct species probably during the Gelasian (Late Pliocene
Possibly to be moved to the Early Pleistocene. See Groombridge ''et al.'' (2002) for a thorough discussion of this species' recent evolutionary history.〕).
It is the most distant living species among the western Indian Ocean kestrels (Groombridge ''et al.'' 2002, qv Réunion kestrel).
==Description==

It can reach a size between 26 and 30.5 cm. The weight is up to 250 grams. The males are slightly smaller than the females. Wingspan is approximately 45 cm and wings are rounded, unlike those of other falcons.〔 The lifespan is 15 years in captivity. The Mauritius kestrel hunts by means of short, swift flights through forests.〔 It is carnivorous, eating geckos, dragonflies, cicadas, cockroaches, crickets, and small birds.〔
