A splendid flight shot Hans and Judy, and thank you for the description of the bird's call! :clap: I often wish that I could include the sounds with my pictures - it's great when someone describes what they heard.
 
I saw that these birds can attack many other birds if they come close to their nest or babies. Great flight shot.
