One from last year taken of a female Kestrel about to take off. This was a Kestrel during rehab & now she in the wild where she belongs.

I haven't had much to post due to workload.

ISO 200, F4, 1/750th sec
Handheld

Thanks for looking

Excellent as ever - particularly impressed by your hand-holding abilities!

What a beautiful bird and very well captured.

The light is excellent and shows off so much detail.
I love the clean BG, the colours and the kestrels pose.

This is spot on for me.
