American Kestrel

We were doing our little drive-about and headed down Hodge Rd, in Clark County to check on the eagle nest there. This Kestrel was perched on the telephone line, and was fearless as we approached. When we stopped, he flew down and perched on cat-tails at eye level. 
I added the 2x converter to my Olympus EM1 Mark 3 and Zuiko 300mm combo and took some shots. I didn't plan on them being much...he was fairly distant, it was windy, and background separation wasn't great. 
Up ok n pulling up the images, I was ppl pleasantly surprised that there were salvageable...processed with Topaz AI Denoise and AI Sharpen.
