The ever present Kestrel!

The horse paddock adjacent to the sluice gate at Pagham harbour has hosted a Kestrel for weeks and as this morning was devoid of many 'photographable' birds I took the opportunity of featuring an 'exclusive' on this much watched and admired bird.
She returned to the same spot time and time again after pouncing on some very small prey on the ground in the field. Her powers of concentration were amazing as she seemed totally oblivious of anything else nearby.
Watching for a minute or so and then suddenly pouncing from her favoured perch....

 ...grabbing what she could and returning to her perch.

Time and time again....and she's been doing this for weeks!

One amazing bird!
