Nice job catching this frame as this young male flies by with not one, but two dragonflies. Nice details and I like the color of the sky.
The Kestrels in my area are avidly feeding on dragonflies this time of the year also. Well done

Nice image, Alan. I like the fanned tail and the prey in the talons.
