"Curve at the end" might be better, Jake. But it looks as if we're all used to seeing the same thing when a big rooster blasts out of the cover.

I've seen good photos of what we're trying to describe. The best illustrations I can find readily at hand are on pages 62, 80, and 81 of "A Wingshooter's World, Volume II". I was the shooting "model" in those shots, but pro photographer Danny Dempster did a really excellent job of capturing roosters in flight.
