Cold, wet, and cloudy for the last few days, but she scored a few. Bald Eagle just after take off Forster's Tern -- Seemed the greatest challenge as they bob and weave to no end. About 1/2000 sec for shutter speed and hard to track with a big lens. Damned near got sea sick with my efforts. Red Tail Hawk also on take off Seems one takes hundreds of images and subsequently deletes about 99%. 1Minute
