Thanks Paula. Only the first photo is good enough to print well but the other shots are nice to have as well because the more I observe the behaviour of these beautiful birds the more I'm learning about them.

How right you are , Jay .. about the behaviour of these birds .. and the patience needed to observe it :cool3:

I'd reiterate Dizzies comments re patience ... and look forward to those golden eyes of the sparrowhawk .

I've noticed more and learned a lot of indepth knowledge about all wildlife behaviour since using the camera more than i ever did in the past ........

Thanks Dave. I only really consider the first Kestrel image to be an achievement as the other were all taken from too far away. But I think that might be one of my entries into the KWT "Photographer Of The Year" competition at the end of the year.But I have many months to try and better that image yet.

I think the image you have in mind would be more than good enough Jason but anything better would be a bonus.
