i was in howth yesterday and i noticed some kestrels hunting around the cliffs. im hoping to try photograph so i was just wondering if anyone had any advice i was thinking maybe a feeding station with a hide beside it but i wouldnt know if a kestrel would come to it or not.

As Kestrels feed on small mammals I can't see how a feeding station would be of any benefit. Try to find a regular hunting area and set the hide up there - that's what I do to watch them.
