European Kestrel (Falco tinnunculus)

Despite the horrible weather I couldn't stay home today. I visited my friend Kestrel again and she was enjoying the weather too. For this shot I was laying in a very wet meadow with hail, wet snow and mud covering me, slowly crawling towards her until the minimum distance my lens would focus (2,2m)
