Thought these shots may interest you.
These were taken at Southmoor on the Langstone Harbour shoreline.I spotted a couple of Kestrel hunting on the sea side of a hill overlooking the harbour. Rather take the classic shots from underneath I climbed the hill on the landward side hoping they would not notice.I reached the top and managed to catch them almost level with me.

The birds flew off to hunt elsewhere after about 5 mins
