Great shots Les, lovely detail in the larger linked Jpg's also better colour in the second shot for some reason.

Thanks for posting.

All three are great with excellent lighting.

I especially love the angle and action of the last photo. :D

Those are amazing. That last one is something I haven't seen before.

Wonderful shots. Does anyone know if these are related to our Kites in North America? It certainly has a much larger bill than a Mississippi Kite.

I'm pleased someone else had noticed (I thought it was just me), don't know why it happens? it's the same image just re-sized slightly smaller for the forum.

It seems blues (and sometimes reds) are affected, but not all the time.
