HI Nick
Very nice shots we have them nesting at work but not allowed to have cameras there they are only 3m above the ground.

Tassie

Very nice shots there Nick.

Very nice shots - it makes me feel even worse about my battery going flat!

Thanks all for your comments

Raoul these Kestrels frequent the Terrigal Haven/Skillion area and can be seen most days specially early in the morning.

aa To get the sun on the bird and a clear BG you just have to be cliff side of the trees I was only 2ft from the edge

Cheers
Nick
