It was a passing thought - Red tails are very common here and my son loves watching them already "round and round and round daddy" :smile:

PS my father was nicknamed "Horus" by the egyptians field workers that
worked with him on his thesis dig at Tel'Far'in in the nile delta in 1962

I bet he has some Horus stories to tell, I recall watching Kites catching fledgling sparrows on the wing in Aden as a child, I think I got quite upset LOL

Those are really good - especially the first one, which is really close to the photo.
