Photography is my only pathological addiction; hopefully it won't drive me to something worse.

Very nice, and well done Bob. I've only ever seen one fly on 2 occasions and they're very quick.

thanks Ian- this was pretty special for sure, a first time for me

You are on a roll, Bob; just great!

you are too kind Al- lucky I wasn't shooting film- lots of oofs and air shots

Excellent captures, don't think I've ever seen one in the air.

thanks Paul- I'm usually happy when I get a yawn or stretched wing- this was really nice
