The common kestrel is a bird of prey species belonging to the kestrel group of the falcon family Falconidae. Usually, this bird settles down on perch and look around for pray. Once prey is sighted, the bird makes a short, steep dive toward the target comebacks to the same perch and enjoys the delicious meal. The image was taken during Oct 2022 at Tal Chhapar where this bird was landing on the Perch looking for the pray.
