Bolt from the blue..........


A poor quality image but an interesting angle. This kestrel was one of a pair in a tree near the cliffs south of Seaham in Co. Durham ....... and when I got too close it headed straight for me before racing off over the trees.

    If I was that mouse I think I'd have died of fright long before the talons got me, Keith!
