Rooks do Raven, Kestrel does Nightjar

Courtship behavior from a Kestrel: unlike thre usual shallow winged winnowing display my resident male also is doing a flight display which involves steeply-raised wings and a glide to the nest site. I've never seen this before. Anyone else?

Also today a Rook flick-flacking like a Raven, except the rolls were very rapid.
