nankeen kestrel

This month my theme will be all creatures great and small....

I am very behind in posting and commenting - and am going to be even behinder (I know - more behind ha ha). Will try and catch up a bit this week before it gets even more hectic - or hecticker LOL

I spotted this beauty as I was driving and did a screeching turn into the next street - grabbed my camera and darted across the road - I was immensely excited not having seen one of these guys so close before. It was hovering right in front of me for such a long time - it was amazing!

Nicely done...I like the way it's not dead.
