I had a mate who used to fly pigeons in competitions, tumblers not racers. When he used to put a new kit (?) up he would stand there and watch them if one tumbled a second later than the other he would be able to identify it when they landed and the poor birds neck was wrung and it was in the bin before it realised where it was.

Morning all,
Another wet day forecast.
Nice photo Graham,sharp focus, background nicely out of focus,did you use auto or selective focus.

Good mornin John and everyone
Thanks for the comments John, the camera was set on intelligent auto. It was taken from indoors behind glass. I must say I am more than pleased with the results. I plan to take a load of shots of Corporation Street later as very soon it closes to traffic for ever. The idea is absolutely bloody insane.

Oh wonderful we have another thick and stupid pillock who has to sit on bus using his phone on hands so he has to talk louder but still holds his phone in his hands in front of him. Selfishgit.
