Bird ID . (1 Viewer)

Hi folks, i have just spent a couple of weeks north east of Malaga, in the hills above a place called El Borge, saw a few birds of higher ground i could ID and some i couldn't, but one species had me beat, saw a pair of them going away from me gliding a quite fast and level flight, i was above them so only saw their wings and tail, a dark plain red brown all over with a lighter orangey/ginger rump or tail, maybe a little smaller than a Kestrel or Collared Dove, the only bird i can compare it to is a female lesser kestrel without the spots.
Any ideas ?, thanks in advance, Alan.
