Well, my week off before my birthday got to a great start with some really shitty weather, which laid waste to all of my plans, but things brightened up today, so I took a chance and went over to the Hawk Conservancy to try and get some pictures.

The day started off promising, but by lunchtime, the drizzle had started :o(

There was a lot of building work going on, and unfortunately one of the Bald Eagles (Danebury) took offence at this and decided to disappear off, and this, combined with the fact the the weather was miserable, I decided against waiting until 16:30 for the kite and heron feed.

The light was poor all day, and so my flight shots aren’t up to anything much, but I did manage to get some nice portrait shots.
