The Kestrel is soon turning out to be one of my favourite birds and ranks very high in the cute list inspite of being a raptor trailing only to the Spotted Owlet and the Rufous Bellied Eagle.
Shot in Hesarghatta. There were around 3-4 vehicles around this beauty. I decided that I wanted a low angle shot and crawled out of my car and into the shadows of one of the SUVs. I took a couple of frames after which this beauty flew. Little did I realise that I was just behind the rear wheel of the Car and a friend had to shout out to the driver of the vehicle not to reverse. :o
