Annoyance in the extreme

Never before have I had a wild Kestrel land so close to me. Managed to line him up in my sights. Only my 9 point autofocus (which I had stupidly left on) decided that it preferred the telegraph pole to the actual Kestrel.

Honestly I was so annoyed it almost turned to tears. :'(

Yes you may think I am a wuss. But I have been trying to shoot this kestrel for the past 2 months (during my lunchtimes). *Sniff*
