@trinda I've started using video & extracting stills for bird photography after years of video/stills for insects. I am learning a great deal as a result. As you say, it's educational. Keeps the old grey cell ticking over.
Thank you

Nice shot, I do like their shape.

Ha, ha this one is great. Where are his legs?

[Jesika]

@vanesa_365 He's still got them, don't worry. They are tucked tightly into his body to reduce wind resistance, streamlining. In the next frame, they were down as he prepared for landing.
Thank you
