Sorry Andy, file size is too big to be attached here and the same goes for free photo hosting sites without paying.

Tell you what Andy, if I get the chance I'll create a photo page on my website and upload some of the others from France.

Hey Al, I used a canon ultrasonic 75-300 lens, captured the images (about a dozen of them) whilst this guy was circling above a combine harvester. He was actually spotted by my wife, who slammed on the brakes while I climbed out and clicked away.

There's a bit of debate going on about which bird he is, he might be a member of the kite family, but the shape of the tail is wrong, or (here comes the biggy) he might be a golden eagle, since they are known to frequent that particular pre-alpine area of France.

I can't see them either. If you have not uploaded them to your site by the next meet, maybe you could bring a few to show.

Hey Dean, okay all I'm just writing up a photo page for my website, so they'll be up soon.

	When you love a pet, loosing it is like loosing a part of your soul. I lost part of mine on Feb 12 2008. Never will it be the same again.
