kestrel-short eared owl
I am posting this simply because there is a story to it. The kestrel's on the SEO site are snatching the voles out of the owls talons, this has happened on two occasions and the kestrel gets the meal. Great to watch, shame i was walking in to the sun.

Never seen anything like this before, great shot and a great story, I suppose kestrals do get clobbered by other birds of prey so this is them getting their owen back

Well done
