A Kestrel

Spotted this Kestrel (Falco tinnunculus) sitting in a tree on a weekend stroll from Tuckton to Hengistbury Head.

It was not camera shy, quite happily remaining perched in the tree long enough to be able to approach close enough to use my Sigma 50-500 lens at a 300mm focal length to get these.
