Parahawkin​g Over Nepal

Parahawking adventure over the skies in Nepal. Birds of prey fly with paragliders guiding them to thermals in exchange for food.

This is just stunning .......... Left me breathless

Yes Topaz darlin' at over 15 - 20,000 ft I expect it would leave you breathless. If I'm gonna fly, I prefer doing so inside a steel tube with a reasonably comfortable seat and with several jet engines to propel me.

Having discussed this with Reg we've decided to stick to what we know and not get carried away haha excuse the pun!!
Miss Omelette thinks it looks great fun and as she is the stunt queen she might be more suitable to such antics!!
