Ooo!!! A wonderful flight capture that Stanley. Such wonderful birds.

It's ages since I've seen one (kept missing them at Kinnordy); the ones on my patch disappeared when a windfarm was developed on their breeding hill... coincidence?

Thanks for sharing this one lad.... they have such a mesmorising flight hunting action, don't they.
