Such a beautiful bird. 😀
Hi! beautiful photo! I’m happy your home safe and sound!
This bird is the definition of “gorgeous”. Thank you for the wonderful pic.
Sensational shot Ron! Burrrrr, sounds cold!
Charlotte
LOVE those colours. And the perch. And am glad (not only for selfish reasons) that you had a wonderful, wonderful trip.
Great shot! Love the expression on his face!!! Get home safe. Frozen pipes! Way too early for that to happen!!
Sounds wonderful, Ron, and I love the photo – the sharp colors, as Diana mentioned, the great facial expression, and your sense of humor. I’m sure you’re having a blast, and what with your frozen pipes this morning, I’m guessing that knowing you’ll be in your warm home soon adds to the piquancy!
Beautiful image of a brautiful bird, who is very obviously telling you, “This is mine…all mine. If you want one, catch your own!”
How great to see a kestrel!!! Love weathered wood post….
Ron, wonderful sharp colors on the kestrel. Wonder if he is cold too? His tail feathers all separate are special too.
His facial expression is priceless! Glad you’ve had a great trip.
This is a wonderful image … fabulous rich color … love the pose!!! Glad you’re having such a good time, but I know it’s always great to be back home!!
When I saw the weather report and SNOW for the Montana and SD, I thought of you all, as well as a friend of my son-in-law who has bought a house in Montana and he and his wife are traveling to his new home today!!
Even though I don’t mind snow and always look forward to Spring, only a few of our leaves have turned so in my mind it is a tad early for snow.
Nice shot of a male Kestrel who doesn’t look too pleased he was interrupted from eating!
Have a great trip, sounds like you are!!
