I've often wondered as to why Kestrels have such a brightly coloured diamond patterned back and upper wings.Clearly when they don't want to be seen in trees or bushes this patterning works very well.

Weather,warm sunny Autumnal day.No wind.The Kestrel had just fed.Bloody talons and morsel of meat still on beak so it was quite relaxed at my close proximity thus allowing good detailed photograph.Nikon D850,Nikon 500mm f4.
