    Kestrel lands close by......

    While out shooting the Eagles nest today I had an unexpected friend drop by. First Kestrel landed in some low lighting under a tree and the second decided he need that warmth from the sunset (a bit chilly today for Florida standards.
    Very hard bird to get close to!

    Used my 200mm-400mm F4 lens with a 1.4X T.C

    The first shot really shows off the beautiful colours of the bird. Nicely done Eric.
    Keep your sense of proportion by regularly, preferably daily, visiting the natural world.

    Pict 1 is simple perfect. What a fantastic shot.

    I'll bet you have to hide your photo albums so your house guests will eventually leave. haha

    Nice shots. I don't believe I've ever seen one that wasn't on a blasted wire of some sort.
