Thanks John. It was pretty exciting to both see and be able to get at least one shot off.

Bobo if I were a rich man I would buy batteries for you and mail them to you! Nice pictures; the LEO is a great bird and I'm sure you loved seeing the proud beast...thanks for sharing...

Thanks guys, yes as Richard was saying - lost my owl v...ty that day.

Spares - I do have spares but were in Dave's lovely red PT (what a lovely car!) and had forgotten to take one out.
