Flying High

Well I have returned to Newlands Corner and the kestrels are still soaring in the sky after lunch ( I think it is a kestrel and C&S reckoned my shot on the last visit was ). I have managed to get a bit closer this time but quality wise I have a long way to go yet, but this one clearly shows a bird of prey on the wing looking for prey on the ground, I did not see any diving or attacks today but they do cover a lot of ground. On this occasion there were two of them on the hunt.

Terrific shot, Vince. Why don't I see this when I'm at Newlands? Very envious!
