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

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.
