Found this single bird in the nest. Did think at first it was one that might not have left the nest but later I saw others going back to the nest and leaving so perhaps just like them

Seems to have well developed feathers/wings

Near a bit of commotion behind me and just missed an adult passing prey to young I hadn't spotted. As it happened they were on the ground. One chick grabbed the vole and swallowed it whole, the other two didn't get a look in.

Nice shot of one before they moved into the nearby tree

Quite breezy but chose a very thin branch looked a bit precarious at times

Wasn't helped when one of its siblings decided to join it.

Thanks for all the Great Photos Ant , they've been a joy .
During lockdown i've been following a channel on Youtube that has a Kestrels nest in the Yorkshire Dales , they're not as far on as yours but they are a wonderful sight !
