Nice selection of the frames here. 3rd one stands out with the wing and talon position and bird is looking straight down on a target and in full flow of flight.
I think 3rd last image should be last image of this sequence due to timing of the frames and by that time bird was turning away from you as well.
Bird taking off sequences normally starts with a perch but I understand that could be man made structure (or other reason) that you don't want to post.
thank you
the sequence is correct, the bird hasn't turned away and it is angled towards us but it was going up and down (kestrels don't fly on a straight line) hence the difference BG. as for the perch, the sequence did not start with the kestrel perched , he was perched pretty high up so I waited for him to dive. the first frame captured is the first frame posted above
