Rain...

Then rain stopped at about 10am today and so I thought I'd go down the shortie road to see if there were any hungry shorties out hunting. There were! Two adults & one juv (extras). This one decided to land next to my car, maybe 2 metres away. It let me take a few photos before flying off. I just feel so privileged to see these birds so close this year, I've never had such close long views before :) 

View in large if you can, it's much better.
