       The way I want to go

       Hi All, I flew my hens this morning in light wind and near
       perfect temp. After about five minutes one of my favorite 2 year
       olds dropped out of the kit and started down. At around two
       hundred feet she cranked a 25 to 30' spin, ( real hard ) and
       when she snapped out, she just folded up and died. Her wings
       were stright up as she fell, she did not flutter but just
       dropped. I could not recover her body as it went into deep woody
       under brush. I think her heart just gave out. She was not sick
       or wormie and I am just relating an intresting story, not
       looking for reasons why.
       Take care my friends
       Thom

       Man, that is too bad. Sorry for your loss. :(  Sounds like she
       was a great bird.

       Hi Thom, do you think she may have just passed out, to many
       G's.? Thom when you get a chance could you post pictures of you
       kit boxes?

       Hi Dinnie, I will try! :) I hope you have been well!
       Hey John, I will get some up in the morning. I will post both
       boxes.
       But I will say I enjoy the walkin most!!! I can get in with the
       birds and
       after a few, they settle down and I can observe them close up.
       They accept me
       as one of them.
       Thanks rolldown.
       Take care my friends
       Thom
