I'll settle with kestrel. It wasn't huge - a bit bigger than a pigeon maybe? And it was hovering over long grass, I assume on the hunt for voles/mice etc.
I first saw it down the bottom of the ramp near the marshes. Once it left the velodrome, it headed up the A12. Definitely want to see that one again.
saw a raptor hovering over the path near the coppermill fields carpark a few days ago - possibly the same one. Small, with a long tail, flapping in place at quite a low altitude. nice pics!
