Amazing birds!

Once again I've not done any drawing since my last post so I have no art for you. However, earlier in the week I had a lovely trip to a local raptor and reptile centre. What a fabulous photo opportunity - in two hours I took nearly 180 photos, thank goodness for digital! Here are two of my favourites from the visit - I hope you like them too. The top photo is a Bald Headed Eagle and the bottom one I've been told is a saker falcon.

You will just have to stop gadding about the country and settle down to some work after you have lovingly cooked wonderful meals for your long suffering husband :o)
