Whilst visiting lands end & taking a walk along the coastline, we first got a fleeting glimpse of a bird of prey as it swooped across the cliffs. We ‘ sure what it was but after numerous sightings later in the day ‘ pretty sure it was a kestrel. We watched these beautiful birds looking for prey all along the coast that day. We saw a male and a juvenile bird in different places. We even saw them together on a rock at one point, unfortunately they were about 100 metres away so I ‘ have a chance of getting a photo of that. I did manage to get a shot of the juvenile on its own later on however.
After that we also caught up with the adult male. Viewing these birds in this habitat really made the trip worthwhile. This was the day after me having a conversation saying that I hadn’t seen any kestrels in Cornwall since moving down here!
