December 31. Little bird of prey

I think this is an Australian Hobby, aka Little Falcon.
He was sitting at the top of a 50foot high ham radio mast.
I know it was 50ft because I rang the owners to ask :-)
Happy New Year to you all!

Great detail for such a long shot. That blue sky really sets him off. Happy New Year.
