1:51 PM Happy Rentner​​ - danke sehr!
@Marika, Danke für den Hinweis auf 8:39 und 8:40. Das Flugbild scheint mir zu einem Rötelfalke zu gehören. Die Bilder bei Brodowski sehen so ähnlich aus.
@Marika, thanks for pointing out 8:39 and 8:40. The flight image seems to belong to a lesser kestrel. The images at Brodowski look similar.

https://www.brodowski-fotografie.de/beo ... falke.html:

... In Spanien nennt man den kleinen Falken: Cernícalo primilla. / In Spain the small falcon is called: Cernícalo primilla. ...
... Der Rötelfalke bevorzugt als Lebensraum trockene (Halbwüsten) und halboffene Landschaften mit vielen Insekten. Er gehört zu den Höhlenbrütern. Als Höhlenbrüter brütet er auch in Baumhöhlen, Felsnischen (Höhle) und in künstlichen Nisthilfen. / The lesser kestrel prefers dry (semi-desert) and semi-open landscapes with lots of insects as its habitat. It is a cavity nester. As a cavity nester, it also breeds in tree hollows, rock niches (caves) and in artificial nesting boxes.
... Im Nationalpark Monfragüe in der Extremadura sieht man den Rötelfalken häufig zwischen den Gänsegeiern und Mönchsgeiern fliegen. Man muss aber schon genau hinschauen um ihn nicht mit dem Wanderfalken zu verwechseln der dort auch brütet. / In the Monfragüe National Park in Extremadura, the lesser kestrel is often seen flying among the griffon vultures and black vultures. However, you have to look closely not to confuse it with the peregrine falcon, which also breeds there.
