After two rounds of voting, two social media semi-finals and a grand final, we have a winner!

Congratulations to Phil Taylor for his pin-sharp photo of a Kestrel with prey. Phil said: “We were out at Park Head and had seen this Kestrel carrying something in its talons, but it was only when we got home and looked through the hundreds of images that we realised what it was actually carrying. It was such a lucky shot and definitely one to remember.”

So well done Phil and we look forward to seeing your image in the pages of Birds in Cornwall. To see your photos considered for Photo of the Week (or Photo of the Year), please submit photos, and more importantly counts and records, to the bird news team at [email protected]
