Observation details
A strange call alerted me to a small bird perched in the telegraph wires... which turned out, to my surprise, to be a beautiful little Kestrel! With its rich chestnuts, greys and blacks, it looked almost to be daubed in paint. It eventually fluttered onto the telegraph pole nearby and actually walked along its perch, bobbing very like the Grey Wagtail I recently saw at home. How peculiar! How pretty!
