Thanks for that Gary, I saw it at work (Leyland Garden centre) and wasn't sure, but was sure it wasn't a kestrel, never thought it could be a Hobby, it evidently was!gary lilley wrote:Probable Hobby high above southport road ( eccleston /croston boundry ) 4.30pm today .
Just looked up the sound of their call online and it matches with what I heard at the time.
Shame I didn't have binoculars, it was flying above for a good few minutes
