"backlight hover"
South Hams Coast Devon.
"Ramblings"
Starting at sunrise a pleasant 12 mile circular coastal hike along with my wife for good company.
No birds of prey seen all morning early afternoon until we hit the very end of our walk.
Not walked this section of the coast for birding although its not too far off my regular birding patch.
Nice welcome surprise to see two Kestrels quartering at the top of the very steep final climb before we reached the end of our walk.
Worth the little extra weight in the ruck-sack carrying the OM-1 with the 100-400 all day while this was the only time the camera came out of my bag but I was pleased I brought it along with me having not used the Olympus for quite some time and of course I bagged myself a pleasing image of this hovering Kestrel.
