'Searching for Kevin' - Photographing Kestrels at Brockholes Nature Reserve

In this episode Pops and Me go in search of 'Kevin'!
For those in the know Kevin is a bit of celebrity in the North West of England, a male Kestrel that has become used to the local people who put out some food for him. Now I know that feeding wildlife is not everyones cup of tea however, Kevin has lived well beyond his natural years and still looks in fantastic condition. The food is only a supplement and Kevin can be seen regularly hunting.
Let me know your thoughts in the comments on whether food should be given to wild animals?
