2nd meeting with this local bird this month, is it a Goshawk? Bit larger than a kestrel, seems stripey-ish on the chest...
Tried to sneak up on it with my phone cam but its very flighty. I'm going to pack my 170mm for a few days and bet I never see it again...
Difficult to be sure but the black edge to the tail in the first photo and the hint of brown and the posture in the second indicate Kestrel.
Goshawk is a big bird, buzzard sized!
