SF - Downy king jr. (Falco tinnunculus)

I had the pleasure to be there with three fledglings with one still in the box. When I arrived were they shy and tried to hide themselves in the trees (bg). After a while did they not care anymore. They came out and I became part of a kestrel family this afternoon. They explored the property (fenced with fruit trees/without residents) and trained their flight skills - hilarious. 😁

My goodness, great close-up but the real treat was getting to spend time with the kestrel siblings. Outstanding JB!
