Flying Things

Time for another launch from the Cape. First, I had to take a few minutes to search for the baby Barred Owls. I almost didn't see the second owl peeking out from behind the branches.



The morning was clear enough, but by launch time the clouds were beginning to form over Orlando. I was about to give up when the Atlas V raced up in the one clear patch of sky.



The Red-shouldered Hawk behind me seemed unimpressed.



Though the Shuttle program is over, we still get to see some amazing launches from time to time.
