San Diego Highland Games and Kilt Night 2009

There was a tent with these beautiful raptors, didn't see anything in the program about flight demos -- some are rescue birds, others were hatched in captivity. I think the first two are a peregrine falcon and a Harris hawk but memory may not be serving this morning







Who was that clown? He was working the Child ID tent (a Masonic service, IIRC) but not sure this fellow qualifies



That's about it for my pics other than the balance of the clan parade which are available on request. Did more knitting than picture-taking this time!

Thanks for posting the group pic, Sydnie. You did a great job in using all of our cameras. It was a pleasure to meet you all at last. And thanks for noticing me, TSJ, how kind of you to recognize me.

Yes, Ken is right, the piper who joined us is Bryant, a novice member of the band.

Since this is a kilt site, I'll also point out the tartans which were worn, to the best of my recollection. L-R: unfortunately I don't recall Jay's, since he had changed out of his Leatherneck to the one he's wearing in the pic. Bob and Bruce, though, were still wearing theirs. Ken wore his Black Stewart and I was in my NYC tartan kilt.
