Portrait Evening on 18th DecemberThe portrait
evening from February was moved to December due to other programme changes and
we were pleased to welcome Raptor Vision. The evening
allowed photography on two studio set ups and we had four birds on display -
Barn Owl, Tawny Owl, Little Owl and a Kestrel. The final surprise was the Eagle
portraits at the end of the session.
A big Thank You to Malcolm and Matthew Tavlin and Jim Rush for the studio
equipment, Colin and Malcolm for the images on this site, and finally Raptor
Vision for an excellent evening. THANKS
