    Looks to me like a Kestrel (Falco tinnunculus) Friso. The eye is very sharp, shame about the branch it's chosen to perch on.

      Tricky to ident from viewpoint. Definitely a bird if prey and a falcon i.e. kestrel. Not familiar with falcons of Holland so can't say for sure what this is.

        Has it escaped from a falconry display? It looks as if it has jesses attached to its legs.

            The bird was part of a show ... They had also an American sea eagle. To bad, he had a free day ...
