For a minute, I thought she'd bought you the falcon!

But... Must have been a great day out. Superb pictures

Thanks guys, it's a lot of fun, very interesting and good for the camera. They do photo workshops as well.

A few more shots, showing how the day went.

It started at 10 and finished at 5. A light lunch and plenty of refreshments are available.

We had encounters with around 8 different birds. It was great fun and very interesting.
