9th July 2010 - Back to the Kestrels

We returned to this site, since there was not a cloud in sight, the sky was a rich blue, and we hoped for a breath of fresh sea air.

I think the pigeons were enjoying the camera attention.  (note the leg ring on the left bird)




At one point three birds were visible in the nest, although a fourth was flying nearby.


This has to be my favourite image from the night- which I shall be getting through the printer this weekend.  Certainly worth the fairly quiet evening for the series this was part of; and the sibling retained the bemused expression for some time and couldn't seem to work out where his sister (?) had flown to.


By the time we left the warming sunlight was fading, but at last one bird did return, and took a brief moment to pose before retiring for the night.
