Yes
I missed them on the nest due to being foxed out most days, but managed catch one that had probably only fledged the previous day looking how it was awkwardly flapping on the high quarry walls they breed in

Due the height it was hard work trying to get the balance of a shot still retaining some level of detail but not looking like it was and shot from 100 feet below the bird as it was?

These are approx 70% crops at 840mm

Lovely shots, 2nd for me too Mick (y)

I'm watching a Kestrel nest but they're a few weeks off fledgling yet, definitely a late breeding pair.
 
Superb, well done!
