Nice image Kirk! Always neat to see ferocious raptors eating little bugs.

Thanks Ken, I guess times are tough for everybody.

What a shot! What a background! (Plus, I learned that Kestrels eat caterpillars). All around winner here.

Thanks a bunch Ken. I had several other good shots but scraped them because of an uninteresting BG.
