american kestrel

 

Spotted this American Kestrel today while out running errands in town. My daughter and I had to follow its flight a bit to get the shot above. Sorry about the distance... even with my 70- 300 mm lens it was a stretch. She was a beauty though. Couldn't resist sharing her as my day five 365 photo challenge.

American Kestrels can be quite skittish so you may not have been able to get any closer!
