ReplyDeleteHi Mike, Thank you for your comment, I am not ignoring yours or Robins comments, but looking into more literature. There appears to be quite a lot, which at the moment seems only to confuse me more. Unfortunately I don't have any more images of that Skua as I tend to delete most of the ones I don't use.
