Super nice. You must be lying down on the grass to get this.

Excellent image. Eric! And you captured a high level of cuteness of that "bird of prey" and I agree "bird of pray" is more appropriate in this case

Any shot of a Kestrel is a good one but this one is way pass that. Well done Eric.

How'd you get that shot? Those things won't let me come within 10 miles of them most times

Great shot.

Great shot Eric. You caught a great pose. The body and wing position really makes this stand out. If I were going to print it I'd lighten the bird up a little and add just a bit of contrast. But then I rarely leave things exactly as shot.

Thanks Mansur...in fact I was in my car and managed to get near this guy when it dove to the ground to catch something....I got lucky and got a bead on it on its way up
