Common Kestrel

Falco tinnunculus

Description:

The Common Kestrel (Falco tinnunculus) is a bird of prey species belonging to the kestrel group of the falcon family Falconidae. It is also known as the European Kestrel, Eurasian Kestrel, or Old World Kestrel. In Britain, where no other brown falcon occurs, it is generally just called "the kestrel"

Notes:

I've made better pictures, but still wanted to share these oldies.
