CommentI was lucky to find this Kestrel sitting low and very surprised to find a rather sad looking mouse in its claws. This was on a roadside of a dirt track not far from a nearby seaside town. A favourite image of mine and I believed suitable for the Best of 2023 competition. Processed in ACR and Photoshop.
