Kestrel-frame1

The full frame of the Kestrel moments before it attacked.

 

I often see birds flit through the field of view, but they're usually sparrows, and the like.

 

For the past couple of weeks a trio of Kestrels has been strafing squirrels in our neighborhood. I didn't actually see this one fly through the video while I was making it ... I only noticed it later.

 

In the video, that is ... while I was making another video the darned bird dive-bombed me. He must have thought that grey-haired mass moving about beneath a white covering was lunch (but the Telegizmos cover protected me from its talons!
