Hobby! (Falco Subbuteo)

I spotted this Hobby hunting over farmland by the path at Abberton Reservoir. I hid behind a bush and after a while it came over, low hard and fast! I think manual focus paid off this time!
It does loose a bit of quality in making it small enough for the gallery and has been cropped and lightened slightly.
