My Old Kestrel
Uploaded: December 13, 2006
Hi Guys,
Went out this afternoon to look for some kestrels, and one in particular. This is an old female, that hangs around some grasslands, and she always lets me get very close to her, and is always very curious about "that guy with that lens sticking out of his car"..
I can tell she is an old lady because of the wide yellow ring around her eyes. The wider the ring, the older they are.
Greetings,
Jeroen Stel
