Aerial interaction between Red-footed Falcon and Hobby

Red-footed Falcon (bottom left) and Hobby (top right)
Not great shots, but a record of a brief spat between the 2cy Red-footed Falcon and a Hobby at Ouse Fen on Sunday.

Compared with the Red-foot, the Hobby on the right shows longer wings and more rounded tail
Another Hobby overhead later in the morning. Massively long outmost primaries give the wings this classic silhouette.
