Hi all,
haven't posted in a while but just thought I'd pop-in and say HI
For the last couple of days I've been pursuing this RTH hunting in the local fields.
Here's a sequence of its final catch of the day.

    Can't beat a series like this one, Russ!!! thumb.gifthumbthumb.gif

    I love the way they just throw themselves at the ground to get the right speed and angle.
