things surely drawing to a close- 3 juvs still about mid-week, 2 on Saturday, 1 still today, showing off a little by skimming low over the sugarbeet to pick Willow Emerald Damselflies out of the riverside hedge

nice moment pic'd below when he/she spotted a migrant juv. Peregrine moving in

time to go I think!

A dainty dish indeed, Ed!

I think your post could be the last this year.

and...

whoever "Wright" is, your pics of the hobbies are outstanding. Thank you...it is pics like this that whet my appetite to make a trip to the UK someday just to see one of these beautiful falcons. And your pics will help pass a few moments until spring arrives and I can hear again from the followers of the Halftwo Hobbies.

Thank you.
