I was driving past a nearby cemetery last month which overlooks a beautiful little harbour and to my surprise the local kestrel was sitting on a tombstone and hunting for insects. Light was really nice and the kestrel is quite friendly and unbothered by one's close presence:

Wow!

Very interesting story and superb images to go with it.

It would be nice if that bird made a habit of using that spot to hunt from.

Thanks and hope to see more

So close ... I wasn't ready , not steady enough once he started to take off, shutter speed wasn't fast enough either... camera can't do it all.

Next Time ! Luckily these guys are pretty common about 5 minutes from the house.

He nests very close to the cemetery and in fact there are a pair of kestrels and at one time the two were in the cemetery together. I saw him again last week on a headstone.

I have quite a few shots I've yet to post from the D500.

This lens is so stupidly sharp it makes me want to forget about anything longer and instead concentrate on getting close enough to my subjects that this is all I'll need. Just a backyard visitor.

Posted similar image from the same shoot before but this one I tried to process it differently. Shows more details in the feathers.
Not bad for 5600 ISO.
