Kestrel - (Falco tinnunculus)

Kestrel - (Falco tinnunculus) - I photographed this kestrel, perched on a rock among the flowers, with Nikon D850, f / 9, 1 / 400sec, ISO320. Thanks for your comments

Another superb wildlife photo Giangiorgio. I surely wish I had your skills for this type of photography.

Best regards,

Gary.

If I remember correctly, Giangiorgio, a kestrel is a bird of prey, related to a hawk. It's a bit of a shame in a sense that there are colors in the vegetation on not sides. However the bird's coloration and feather pattern(s) win the day. - - My best always, michael - - - - Ciao!

Superb colourful composition with main subject greatly posed and perfectly lit and superb overall technical quality, Giangiorgio! Complimenti! Ciao! PDE
