The Bunting took off like a stabbed rat- then I saw why

A first for me- Don't often see Kestrels on the Levels these days

Thanks for looking

Great to see the Kestrel ... had several sights of one yesterday but all tantalisingly too far away

So far this year that's always been the case for me too Roger- they are getting quite rare

Super set Les and the Kestral is a great shot.

A great set but I particularly like the chaffinch. I always struggle to find a background they stand out from rather than blend in with. Must try harder. Kestrels are always lovely to see and so sad that their numbers have declined.

A good catch with the Kestrel Les, like the Bunting too.

Thank you Bryn, as I say it's a first for me

Plain BG is best, but you shoot what you find , thanks for the comments
