Hello Armando, thanks to the appreciation, it also takes luck or being in the right place at the right time, I was lucky because I have brought to this enchanted place for photos at the lesser kestrel would otherwise never have been able to observe them up close and photograph, then certainly the photos you need to do, but already there ....
A salutone and do not despair, it begins slowly and then, if the flame of passion towards photography and nature really burns, it progresses.

Hello, Antonio.

Hello, very good photo, I like the detail and that's why I'm asking you .... cropped? If not, you had to have no more than 5 feet above your head.
Compliments.
For the rest I doubt ..... but it is almost certain that it is a beautiful kestrel. In fact, P 8 and P10 are not equal the mustache is marked. Moreover, it seems to me much more dripped the lesser kestrel and especially the nail are black main difference between Kestrel and Lesser Kestrel.
Naturalemtne this is what I see from the photo.

Hello Vincent, I cropped it, it was about ten yards, I do not think it was a hawk because it was part of a colony of lesser kestrel and brought prey to the nest, I do not think that the colony would accept a pair of kestrels, nail had I also noticed those paw down but I think they are dark because in the shade, however, is the strange thing, you're right, but the kestrel has the crest on the head?
I have seen many boys of the colony, when I did this and other pictures already posted and there was next to me that I will post a photo ornithologist who was also confirmed he and lesser kestrel.
Now I give you a look at a few more clicks.
For now, thanks for the ride, a greeting.

Antonio.

Hello Vincent, I have seen other pictures, all with light colored nails that, though, being in the shadows are a bit dark, in a couple of clicks you can see just as well that are clear.
For the mustache and the plumage do not know what to tell you.
Thanks again.

Well ...... I remain very puzzled, black nails, the mustache, the clear cheek are too obvious and I Matera where there are lesser kestrel 5000 I photographed a kestrel then also the fact that they can attend the same area there is ( which is different from being part of the same colony).
Peró if you're pretty sure (even comforted by an ornithologist) do not insist.
Dear Greetings. Vincenzo

Hello Vincent, honestly I am not sure that just maybe this specimen was not a hawk, I'm sure that brought food to the nest, part of the colony of lesser kestrel, I just saw land to the nest, the ornithologist is one who discovered years ago, the colony and there may be who may not have framed this, you know I do, I send him the picture and feel what he says, thanks again, you've contributed to my growth as usual. :-P
Do you know what he tells me.
A salutone.

Antonio.

Great looking shot !! They are beautiful your lesser kestrel, kestrel if it is difficult to properly evaluate the beats ... the light on the back and the ventral part, remains in shadow, the claws may be dark for this reason ... usually are of lesser kestrel size a bit 'smaller ... to me it looks like a kestrel, in any case, much shooting done in difficult lighting conditions, compliments !!

above a grillaio male, under a male kestrel ...... so as to have the possibility of a more effective comparison.
Of course, my thanks go to Anthony for his kind hospitality and desire to grow regardless of who has recognized the photographed subject ... however, light and processing in pp can always make bad jokes grilliaio in transforming a kestrel or vice versa.

Thanks Richard, Fernando, and Giulio Giulio, Henry and Carmel.
Thank you Vincenzo and your passion for birds of prey which gives the opportunity to learn even people like me who has just started, if you had not entered with the doubt maybe we would not have in-depth for the identification, bravo, as far as I'm concerned foul always when you have doubts. I have not checked the email if the ornithologist responded.
A salutone.
Antonio.

Antonio Bravo .... you're right .... here it comes to photography but I think this type of photography is inextricably linked to knowledge of what you are photographing which of course is an integral part of the discussion.
Therefore here is not to impose one's own reasons, but to ascertain the species to contribute to the improvement of our knowledge.
Of course if it was a kestrel would take note of having seen for the first time with one noticeable mustache, cheek and clear the claws blacks (not to mention that also seem to be a strong and dripping primary P8 P10 of different sizes), ...... so in short, a lesser kestrel (though of lesser kestrel is) could also be confusing who is not an ornithologist.
Antonio, replacement to you and all the invitation to comment to enrich our knowledge.
really compliments also for the spirito the right with which participate in the forum.
Vincenzo
