    A volunteer for the Belgian non-profit Noctua.org grabs an eyas, a baby kestrel falcon (Falco tinnunculus), one of the protected species of birds nesting on Chièvres Air Base, in order to band it, in Chièvres, Belgium, May 31, 2017. Individual identification of birds makes possible studies of dispersal and migration, behavior and social structure, life-span and survival rate, reproductive success and population growth.
