LOL Margaret... you don't want to be underneath one of them when they land, do you!! What a great picture you've got of this youngster in flight.

Very well done lass - hope you're 'puter is OK now.

Great shot of this big, powerful bird!!! As for clearing computer space - I keep a double set of copies on two external hard drives, then I can delete after posting to bf and free up space on the little laptop.
