    Another beauty, Will. Great turn of the head, and nice dorsal view. He's also somewhat ragged, but seems to be a different bird from the prior post.

    Thanks for that guys, much appreciated. Yes Bill, it is a different bird...seems to be the moulting process.

    Wonderful banking capture, William. Love all the feather tonal variations, and the perfect head turn. There is a bit of white fringe on the leading edge of the wings and head, as well the tail.
