Two Kestrels (quite far away)

The one up top is the youngster, you can tell by the feather on his back that just won't lie down. My mother's standard way of treating this would be to lick a hanky and apply the hanky to offending sticky out feather until it lay flat.

Out at the City Of Bears today as we have a holiday in Deutschland today. Pfingsten in German or Pentecost if you will. I'm not a religious chap but I'll take Monday off whenever it is offered.

We ended up going to Kloster Eberbach for dinner which was lovely as we sat out in the evening sunshine and we could hear the birds singing their way through dusk (including a nightingale although I wouldn't know).

Back to normal tomorrow. Sigh.
