What is it like to spread the wings and fly high above? Is it really a freedom as we think? It is impressive to watch a bird in the sky, especially a bird of prey. Not necessarily to be a big one, the kestrel is small, but look at these wings and the symmetry, isn't it just beautiful?

When I discovered that kestrels are living among us, I pass by that block often to see if they are resting on the usual spot. Here it is - the male kestrel, perching on the concrete block. It doesn't look natural. I love to see them around and at the same time I can't stop thinking how much we took from their natural habitat, making them to adapt and live in this concrete jungle.

A new residential building is almost ready. Right now nothing obscures the view from the top floor. So, it was not a surprise to find our friend there.

And let's zoom.

It gives the bird a perfect view over the field where must be enough food.

The last two photos I took in June. We used to walk in the field there and often met the kestrels hovering above in search of food.

And that's it for today. Have a great Feathered Friday!
