Hi Alan,
It's a captive bird - spent the day with a falconer and his amazing birds.

Re: Kestral

Super detail from being so close

If it were mine the only thing I would do is try and make the background uniform dark to get rid of the highlight spots towards the top of the frame

Re: Kestral

Super shot Jim
I really like the composition, detail and lighting
The highlighlits Stan mentions might benefit for toning down a little
Cheers
