This is a male Kestrel bird. We spent hours with this guy during last season. This shot I got after crawling around 25 meters in two hours without disturbing him. I spotted a rock where he was coming continuously and catching insects from the grass around. At the time of this shot all of a sudden he jumped from the rock and came straight towards me, almost into my mfd. So there is not much room at the bottom and I had to crop it for portrait.
Camera gear used here is - Nikon D7000, Nikkor 400mm F2.8 VrII
Exif:- SS- 1/1250, Iso- 250, F5.6, Length- 400mm.
Thanks in advance for all important suggestions and critiques.
