Well I hope the photos were worth all the heartsearching!

Do we get to see any?

Limpit's Saturday school had a guest before Christmas, they invited a nearby bird sanctuary to bring in some raptors. The kids were all eager to see the vulture (OK, technically not a raptor, but a scavenger) but as soon as it got brought in, shivering in anticipppppp ation, they wanted it out again... couldn't stand the smell! When the 'keeper' let them fly, everyone ducked their heads down... me, being me, kept still... it's something to know that a bird has, in the space of about 3 seconds, judged, computed, launched and executed a perfect flightpath to just gently brush your hair with its wingtips....
