About Although these little guys are not wary of humans they are very difficult to capture in flight images. Compared with my other birds, they are very small- 9-11’’ and fast. And when it comes to in flight shots, that’s a deadly combination. So far Burrowing Owls and Kestrels are my biggest challenge. At least I got one of them!!!! The next one is the Male Kestrel, the "Holy Grail" for bird photographers.
This afternoon I went shooting with Jinggoy and Marcus at “Jinggoys backyard”.
I hope you guys like this one.

Very nice Yamil, I like this pose you choose to post as I know you had a few to choose from as did I, It really shows his brillant eye colors and nice long wings for such a little guy.
I Agree Mission Accomplished, I think you will get the male kestrel easily should you come across one, they have been rare lately, I think with this then a kestrel you really like, and maybe a peregrine you will have the trifecta of sought after birds in northern california.. As far as having you there, It was my pleasure as I dont think we could have got these quality shots alone! Great Teamwork......
