This one was spreading its wings, still covered only with fuzz. :)

Testing it's wings, very cool! I understand the problem with focus when you are that far away with the lens you are using.

Thats an awesome shot vern, wow and it is at 6400 iso, did you use a trypod, I think not!
I can't wait to see them fly, that is going to be a great time to get some pictures hay!
