Skittles flying

Skittles has been practicing some flying and we finally got some decent pictures. It wasn't easy! The one picture of her in front of the window came out strange - like she's see through. Anyway, hope you enjoy them!

Get many of those as well with Charlie! However, even the ones that I DO get of him turn out blurry! I have yet to get an in-flight shot of him that wasn't blurry! They truelly are all great shots!

LOved them, Loved them! ..did i say Loved them?

Wish you could come over to photo my little guy doing recall or just happily flying from room to room! Great Job! Quakers are so subtle in their colouring. Nice to see the blue in the wings.

Those are awesome. I particularly like the third one. It's so interesting to see how the wings "bend" in that shot. For all the people who claim clipping is nothing, just like a nail trim, that photo disproves the theory entirely for me. She's USING those primaries unlike us not USING our fingernails. Thanks for posting that, she's a beautiful bird.
