According to my husband your visitors are 1) Kestrel, 2) Booted Eagle and 3) Female Blackcap.
Enjoy them!

The top ones a Kestrel. I fly AESA test flights for my commercial drone operators license in the mountains near Moralet. Sometimes I meet a man flying a Kestrel.

He waits until I’m finished before flying the Kestrel. I do the same for him. Drones and birds of prey are a danger to each other.

The Kestrel can reach about 40mph in a straight line and dive on prey at 100mph+
