I don't think that 'in hand' shots are in the spirit of the gallery are they?

Sorry. I didn't realise they weren't allowed. It's years since I read the rules. I'll check through and delete the few I have.

Ignore my comment, it was unfair, they are allowed, just my personal opinion.

That's a super picture RM, with some great underwing plumage detail too.

As long as the bird is wild and released at the time, there is no issue.
