Eagles Flying - Photoshoot - 8th February 2009

Boyle Camera Club members at Eagles Flying in Ballymote.

It's on ... it's OFF ... it's ON again!
Residence of Boyle awoke this morning to the first decent bit of snow in ages. It was met with mixed emotions by organisers of this month's club photo-shoot. Initially, a message was sent via text to all members to say the shoot was cancelled. Negotiations continued among committee members and it was decided to proceed with the event and so the second message circulated. In the end, 13 members came to The Crescent in Boyle and we promptly headed to EAGLES FLYING in Ballymote, Co. Sligo.

Members were given the opportunity to photograph rare and exotic birds at this premier raptor sanctuary. Our stay was very professionally facilitated and we were able to get up close and personal with all manner of falcons, hawks and eagles ... oh yes, and there was the odd sow and ram there too! Excellent day out and fun had by all.
