It's true, I quite like Pigeons

This was with another Kestrel this morning, and it's where I see them at my local reservoirs, so I can't see how it's anything else. It might be the light, my eyes, wind swept feathers (there was no wind at ground level), or ?, but the breast looks a bit odd to me, very bold/dark.

Is it just me?

It's a heavy crop; bird 40m up a Pylon, me 90m away

Thanks

Thanks for replying, Cristain; I couldn't really see it being anything else, but doesn't the breast look odd to you?
