This is a great capture, Karen. A pleasure to view. I have kestrels around but can never get a photo of one. Great pose and excellent detail. Nice diagonal with the perch.

Always a tough subject to get close to, from my experience. Very nice, Karen. I really like the detail and texture in the head.

Well the one click worked out very well. The UK kestrel seem to have a different color scheme than the ones over her in the US. I like the detail, perch and sharpness on the larger image, nice job in getting this, way to go.

Audubon would like this. Very clean lines, lts of detail and yet with a soft feel. Terrific, Karen.

Excellent capture of a shy subject, Karen. I really like the light and simple composition of this image. Nice regal pose - great to get it on a natural perch.

A great Kestral image and on a nice branch makes it sooo much better than a high wire. I too like the diagonal perch
