Also, is that a kestrel? One wonders how long you had to wait to get that shot. What hawk species is the second one?

The Kestrel was shot using my old manual focus Nikon 800/5.6 adapted on a Canon 5D. To be honest I was leaving a morning of bird shooting at a refuge and saw this guy on the way out. Got off about 5 frames before he took off.
The other is a Swainson Hawk if I remember correctly. Shot before Minolta stopped making camera's with a Maxxum 7 and Minolta 300/4 APO.
