Are there any other photos of the kestrel? Might be able to ID it properly.

With the dark claws, and the other points mentioned by Richard, I don't think there is too much doubt.

If you download the free Merlin app (by Cornell University), it has a very handy Photo ID feature where it will provide suggested IDs for the birds in your photos - and you can read up on the species, check maps, and see other photos within the app too for each of the suggested species. (It also does sound ID, and has a series of questions to suggest species for those birds you don't manage to get photos of). For most of the photos you have posted it should have no problem providing an accurate ID. I suspect it would save you from having to post so many queries here, thus saving you some time. There could be a few photos that it might struggle a little with, but those you could still post on here.
