OMG what beautiful images!! Composition, color, detail, action, you have it all.
And you managed to do it with Canon equipment. Amazing!

The BC FM'ers are killing Kestral photography for everyone else. How can we hope to come close to this stuff?

YGMV.

There is nothing wrong with the gear and for sure not with your photography, Pius

! Gorgeous AK images without any doubt. Did you and Geoff did it elbow-to-elbow inside that aviary

? YGMV!

We'll trade you for the Cali Peregrines

But BC does require a 14 day quarantine so you better take a month off work

A month off work is not a problem! I retired a few years ago.
The Cali Peregrines are great, but this year Torrey Pines has been off limits due to lots of bad behavior. Next year I hope to be vaccinated and back on the beach and the cliff. You should make the trip. Bring Pius too.

Regardless of equipment used................A most pleasing color and an 'unforced' sharpness abounds. Your processing is impeccable! Voted

Mind blown!...
These kestrel photos are stunning. I love the composition and colors, as well as the variety of behaviors you've shared.
I use to try to photograph this species and have since given up because of their size and challenge to bridge the distance... clearly, you've produced a body of work that has always seemed near impossible to me.

If anyone from Vancouver Island wants to adopt a 55 year old man let me know

2, 13, and 15 are my picks from this excellent set.

Do you actually need a canon to shoot a tiny bird? :-} Some people seem to use Beta Max
