Flying Free

Science Week continued at school today, with the main attraction being the paper airplane competition held at lunch recesses. Some of these kids built AMAZING airplanes, with one traveling around 70 feet! After taking pictures of that and a few other events, I found myself with a few friends in front of the school, waiting for the final bell to ring. We looked up and saw two hawks circling above us. (No, not waiting to snatch one of us!) I still had my camera with me, so I figured I'd try to get a few shots of it, even though I didn't have my big zoom lens with me. These birds were so incredibly graceful and beautiful, it was a joy to watch them soar!
