.. and a near miss collision on the rush down to the litter bin

The near miss is very cool - if you made the exposure the same on the second bird - it would look like they were one bird!!
Nice shots Pol... they look quite majestic....

What a quick hand Polly.

Thanks guys
The first one is full frame, second one a crop as the bird was more distant. Normally, I'd only keep the full frame shots but I was amused by the 'near miss' so decided to keep that one too this time.
