I think this may expand into 4 parts, as I didn't realise how many aviaries we visited between lunch and the 2nd flying programme, so some more static shots.... I've not got as far as the flight shots, so they could all be rubbish, but fingers crossed not!



I've just noticed Imgur doesn't like speech marks!

Thanks Linda, I had to go back to the eagle, coz he was one of the ones too close to the wire! I think the Kestrel should be a Chequerboard Kestrel :D
Last part will hopefully be owls in flight, but not got that far in sorting yet, and it was in a woodland, so everything may be a bit dark

It's a real blast Snappy... would hate to be there with a film camera as opposed to digital lol
