A Female Kestrel

Hi Chocky, I think you may have a Kestrel there, still a lovley bird tho'

Yes I know :)

Compare your fab. pics of a Kestrel to the best I have ever come up with, I have never been lucky enough to have good views like yours and my camera at the same time, you are always popping up with great shots every day........... how do you manage that? :conf40:

Not too bad. Action shots are very hard.

Here is a male Kestrel hovering

Any shot would do me:conf40: thankyou

Practice on Gulls. They ride the wind so it makes it easy
