Same bird as my last post; different, but similar bush. I was able to get closer...that almost never happens!
50D, 700mm, ISO 200, F5.6, 1/640 LARGER version provided. Thanks for your comments/critiques...I appreciate them all! Sharon

Very nice light and composition, Sharon. In the larger version, it looks as if your focus might have been on the Kestrel's back rather than the eye.
