3 Hides in 1 Day, Part 2 - The Kestrel Hide

Welcome to Part 2 of our exciting three-part series, “3 Hides in One Day,“ where Pops and I embark on an unforgettable wildlife photography adventure at Des Ongs photography hides. In this episode, we transition from the morning’s buzzard hide to the European kestrel hide, where the real action begins. With our trusty Nikon Z9 cameras paired with the exceptional Z400mm f2.8 lenses, we’re perfectly equipped to capture the speed, grace, and beauty of these incredible birds of prey. You’ll see us in action as we navigate the challenges of photographing kestrels in their natural habitat, focusing on their intense hunting behavior, stunning mid-air acrobatics, and those piercing eyes that make them such captivating subjects. We’ll take you through the techniques we used, the adjustments we made on the fly, and share some behind-the-scenes moments that highlight the patience and precision required for wildlife photography. Expect close-up shots, slow-motion captures, and some incredible stills that truly showcase the European kestrel’s majesty. Whether you’re a seasoned photographer, a bird enthusiast, or just love the outdoors, this video has something for everyone. And don’t forget—this is just the second part of our adventure! Be sure to catch Part 3, where we’ll round out the day with the enchanting barn owls in the evening light.
