Cheers buddy

These were taken at The Hawk Conservancy which is near Andover on the A303. It is also without doubt the best value day out you can have!! it's less than £9.00 to get in and they do 3 flying displays and you can wear a glove and have a Harris Hawk land on your hand !!

I've been doing wildlife longer than planes but I've only recently started getting good at it ( planes travelling at 600mph are simple compaired to a bird flying at say 50mph )

They have 2 stellers there now but you can't get very close to them as they want them to get used to their new surroundings, but they are beautiful
