Went Looking for Orchids in the forest, but only found this rather handsom Kestrel. Taken with my 70 -300 lens and cropped...........I was hoping to get closer as he didnt seem to mind me but some dog walkers happened along at exactly the wrong moment ...despite Richard pleading with them to wait a bit the edogs charged straight ahead and frightened the bird off. Grrrrrrrrrrr!
Still I am pretty impressed with the shot I did get.
Didnt find any orchids tho!

Waiting for Pics of Lewis's Party....did his card and cheque arrive OK?
