Kestrel... My Friend (3)

KC Countryside view map

I HAVE SEEN THIS LITTLE CHARACTER MANY TIMES,
BUT VERY SELDOM DO I GET A DECENT IMAGE AS SHE
IS SPOOKY.. TODAY I GOT LUCKY!! I MISSED THE
MOST INTERESTING MOMENTS.. WHEN A BLUEJAY, LIKELY
WITH A NEARBY NEST, ATTACKED HER AND CHASED HER AWAY.
I GOT THE ACTION IN THE VIEWFINDER, BUT FOCUS WAS OFF.

FOR SOME STRANGE REASON I LIKE THIS "BEHIND THE BRANCHES" IMAGE

Nikon D300 ,Nikkor 200-400mm f/4G ED-IF AF-S VR
1/1500s f/8.0 at 550.0mm iso560 (1.4TC) full exif

Very nice series Tom. You did well to get good focus on the second image through the branches.
