Hi ERHP.
Very nice shot, so cool that you are able to identify your bird, I don't suppose there are two with a spot like that in that location.
Cheers, Graham.

Pretty sure this is the male from last year based on the placement of a spot in the eye but in any event I was very happy he decided to take off mostly towards the setting sun.

Hi Brian.
Nice shot, great action.
I'd say it is still flight (unless they are walking on the water and just stretching their wings) as there is lift being produced to keep them that high out of the water, I don't think it is the water skiing keeping them up!
Cheers, Graham.

Hi neonlight.
Poor little beggar, a sad reminder of the reality of natural behaviour. Nice shot.
Cheers, Graham.
