Kestrel:Southerndown

Popped down to Dunraven again on Sat a.m 10.Dec with a couple of hours to spare hoping to get a few pics of the Black Redstart in better light. Unfortunately the light wasn't any better despite a good forecast and the redstart didn't show either although it was seen by others in the afternoon !! As I drove past the gravel car park at the top of the hill I noticed a Kestrel perched upon the Heritage Coast sign from where it flew on to a nearby electricity pole allowing me to get a couple of shots,just a pity the sun didn't break through and give the shots a little bit of "warmth".

I'm sure that's a tricky shot to capture given the background.
