Kestrel doesn't look intimidated

Today it was all about the Chestnut Munia!
First photo full adult, second very young bird (bill is black, more brownish feathers), third, two photos, also young but the bill already not black; showing some black spots on the head and by far more red feathers. This one was posing best today
The last one is an old photo of more matured bird - very confusing for not well prepared visitor-birders plumage (but all Chestnut Munias go in that step, with high variability!). That is ~the last step before the adult plumage.

A few photos taken with a Canon or an Olympus.
The first two and the last one are a few years old; the other photos were taken recently.
