Kestrel pair 01022011-4055

Idaho

When I first spotted the female Kestrel, it was from much too far away for a photograph.
When she flew off over the edge of the rock and down the hill to hunt, I took the chance
that she might return and I snuck closer to the rock outcropping... My hunch paid off
double when the male flew over to join her!!

Terrific comparison of the Male and female, Stuart! Great work.
