A First for Me

I have seen this little kestrel - fleetingly - many times, but never have been able to catch his picture to really see his details. Guess they're the jumpiest of all the hawks around here. Not the best detail, but I was tickled to catch him at all!

[Dyan Stevens]

Hooray...you finally caught him!

[Daisy Miller]

Good capture. I am glad that you finally were able to capture a shot of "him".

[Jane Pittenger]

Aren't they gorgeous

[Emilie Cartoun]

Lovely!

[Rick]

I think I've seen one or two around here, but like you said, they never sit still long enough to get close. great shot.

[Scott]

Very common where I live. Good for you in catching this bird. By the way the bird I did not know what kind it was was a Yellow-Rumped Warbler. They are not native to our part of Missouri so they were just passing through.

Love the looking back pose!

[Issi Bannerman]

I love the way he's looking back at you. Nice capture.

[Tony]

Lovely shot, the head must be turned 180 degrees.

[Robert Barr]
