Hi there,
I spotted this bird yesterday over a lake near Peterborough.
At first glance I thought it was a kestrel, but straight away I noticed that it's behaviour wasn't what I would expect from a kestrel. At one point it swooped down over the water after which I took this photo. It looks to me like it's swiped a dragonfly and ate it in flight?
Another photo I took shows the bird looking like a large swallow, sort of anchor shaped.
Thanks in advance for any thoughts.
