A welcome visitor

 We were delighted to see a kestrel in the garden on Friday. It was having difficulty keeping steady on a branch in the apple tree, as it was buffeted by strong winds, but stayed for several minutes before it flew, or blew, away at speed. 


A combination of a moving branch and taking the photo through a distant window was not conducive to a good picture, but I was very happy to get anything at all!!
