Digital interpretation designer Anthony Roberts captured amazing footage of a very focused male kestrel hovering over a cliff at the South Stack Light House off of Anglesey, Wales. The bird managed to maintain remarkable head stabilization even though a strong wind was blowing his body around quite a bit.
It was a tad breezy on Anglesey on Sunday.
It looks like he’s just falling forwards at the same speed, don’t think he used any thrust. It was pretty breezy too, I guess about 20 to 25 mph. Gusting stronger. Very impressive.
