Great shots! I got some last year, but it's amazing how they can blend into a background.

Outstanding Randall...simply outstanding!
You really pulled that 1st image off very nicely with strong side light....I like it! The others look to be classic poses which also are very nice. Don't know what you said to him/her, but it certainly gave you some sweet poses.

Nice one, I just saw one today behind my place and I tried to get close but he kept running from. He was keeping with his name sake I guess.

Gorgeous shots. Do these guys fly or just run?
