Killer shot, E.J. Although not exactly what you wanted, this tail feather extension and wing position had to be a nice consolation prize.

EJ, I agree with Jim Zipp, its too bad the wings were'nt extended fully. I would throw this away or better yet send me the picture. Just awesome. I have some shots similar to this but all on a wire.

An excellent image of my absolutely favorite raptor. Unfortunately the kestrels around these parts are VERY skittish and it is almost impossible to get good closeups even with the 500/4.

Nicely done!!!

Great capture E.J. :) I see Kestrals almost daily, but I have never been able to get close enough for a shot like this.
