Raven Heritage
RED RAVEN AEROBATIC DISPLAY TEAM COLLECTION
Team Background
Composed exclusively of Ravens the team of 8 birds is the perfect demonstration of the famous and often reported ability of Ravens to do aerobatic flight.
Displays by the ravens take place in numerous back yards, fields and open spaces all weekends.
The awesome display to the left is carried out by synchro duo RED5 and RED7.
We shouldn't be surprised, hush-hush rumor has it, that the synchro leader RED5 has spent some time at the Tower of London, but flew away... (feeling too much like a writing desk syndrome we suspect)
