Bryan, where is that last picture from. Can't tell, is that a sand dune?

Poplar Grove, IL. It's home. C77. That is a corn field, no corn yet.

Great flying! That was a close call with the bird! The real question is who made the bird noise? (sounds like something I would do)

Sounded like an Adam bird noise effect to me. Funny, I missed it in the video the first time but it looked a lot closer in real life. to that than me. I was glad to see the bird maneuver to avoid us! I've hit 2 so far in my flying career.

We are a tick under 270 hours. We flew 4.3 hours yesterday and no overheating issues, as usual.
