Lesser Kestrels, Lleida, Spain - Apr 2012
Mandatory Credit: Photo by Roy Mangersnes / Rex Features (1696006j)
A male Lesser Kestrel has positioned himself on the edge of the barn roof, waiting for a mate, and chasing of intruders.
We Can See You! Falcon Preys For A Female
A small bird of prey was pictured peeking out from under a hollow roof tile while waiting for a female to mate with.
The red-blooded Lesser Kestrel had secured a nesting place for himself and a partner by chasing off intruders.
The series of images shows the male protecting his nest while attracting a female admirer.
Wildlife photographer Roy Mangersnes snapped a colony of kestrels in northern Spain.
He said: "The male kestrels would fight over available nesting holes and then wait for the females to check out their options before they would select their mate of the year.
"There were 20 pairs of birds nesting on a barn roof in Lleida, mostly under hollow tiles."
The Lesser Kestrel is a migrant and comes directly from Africa to start breeding.

Cape Province, South Africa
A WORLD OF DIVERSITY AND DIFFERENCE IN SOUTH AFRICA
From vast plains to rolling mountains and golden beaches to barren deserts, South Africa is a vast country of huge diversity.
And its bustling cities are just as varied as its landscapes - from the likes of hustling Johannesburg to the cosmopolitan Cape Town.
The country is renowned for its wines and is the world's largest producer of gold.
In 2010, it will also play host to the 2010 FIFA World Cup, the first time the contest has been held on the African continent.
Cape Town is the second largest city in South Africa and is the capital of the Western Cape Province.
It is also the legislative capital of the country, being the location of parliament and other government buildings.
One of these is the old city hall, a large Edwardian building in the city centre that was built in 1905.
It was here, on 11 February, 1990, that Nelson Mandela made his first public speech just hours after being release from prison.
Cape Town is noted for its architectural heritage, with the highest density of Cape Dutch style buildings in the world.
One of its latest constructions is slightly different however - the main stadium that will host matches during the World Cup.
Known as the 'Mother City', the Cape Town metropolitan area covers a vast sprawl; however, the city centre or 'bowl' is relatively small.
It is nestled between Table Bay and the Table Mountain range, which provides a dramatic backdrop to the city.
The flat-topped Table Mountain, along with other famous peaks such as Lion's Head and Apostles Mountain, form part of the Table Mountain National Park.
This area is a significant tourist attraction, with many visitors using the cableway or hiking to the top of Table Mountain.
Its main feature is what gi...
