One of the Kestrel photographs taken in Hasserghatta last month. It was very friendly and was posing for a long time. Got some good close-ups. Will post them later.

Thanks for the comments.

Praveen, not been there after we met there on 26th Jan.

Sabyasachi, I heard the sighting there is very poor now. The digging might be still going on.

Nice composition. I like the positioning of the bird in the image. The eye contact is nice. Overall, a nice image. Did you get any verticals?

[Mrudul Godbole]

Bibhav, I have tried lot of compositions, since it was sitting patiently for a long time :). I will post them soon.
