I was busy doing sit-ups in my attic and as I stared up through the window something caught my eye. A long ointed winged bird appeared and soared gracefully. I thought to myself "I have not seen a Kestrel over my house for a while". Suddenly another appeared and then I realised the short tails. I jumped up and peered up and saw four of them circling and realised they were not falcons of any sort but Gulls. Nature's Gotcha!
