As antsy as the red tail was, I was sure he’d be gone quickly. Not so...he sat on the glove in threat posture. And sat. And sat. And sat. Finally, I gave up trying to record his release, put the camera up, and reached for the glove I had tossed over my shoulder. And then the uncooperative little snot took off like a rocket. So no release video and no post-release photos, but isn’t this a lovely shot of him just prior to release? (Yeah, those green stains were on his underwing when he came in, from where he pooped in the box he was being transported in. A month later, he still hadn’t fully groomed them off.)
