1 seen on our way out in an aerial battle with a Raven in the distance, unfortunately those pics didn't work, just a couple of them flying close together.

apologies, saw 1 earlier and then this one on our way out, no way to tell them apart when they are flying solo, so listed them as 2 but forgot to mention the earlier one. Blinded by the aerial battle we saw.
Thanks for checking.
