Here are some more lucky shots that I caught just by chance. I am not on a military flightpath here in North Norfolk or particularly near an airfield, at least not since Coltishall closed, so it was a surprise to see this passing Merlin over the hedge at the end of my garden and I just had time to grab a couple of shots. Shutter speed was too fast and the rotor blades look stationary but I didn't have time to do anything but turn the camera on and shoot with whatever settings it happened to be at!

Note the small helicopter in the background as well.

What I hadn't realised, until I ran round to the back of the house to see them disappearing in the distance over the field, was that there were actually two of them.
