Very nice series. I especially like the last picture.
Well done.

Was this an organised paid-for experience (if so, would you mind letting me know who it was) or do you have connections in the falconry world?

A few flight pictures from the falconry experience we went on.
Cheers, Graham.

Thank you, as you can probably guess, these are the shareable shots (from a series of bursts at 10fps).
Yes it was a paid for experience with South Coast Falconry, they operate out of a local visitor attraction called Robin Hill on the Isle of Wight.
I would love to have connections in the falconry world but alas too many other hobbies and commitments, classic cars will keep you busy but at least some of the car shows are at fairs where there is falconry (but several dozens of people also trying to watch them).
Cheers, Graham.

Photo taken in small pond on a horse farm. It is a minor miracle I got any clear shots as the horses were following me around nuzzling me for pats.
