Congratulations Grace!! Well deserved Avian IOTW for the week ending July 22, 2011!!!
Sure seemed like this bird was playing with me. He'd skim right toward me and then veer away, sometimes after coming within my minimum focus area. Strong winds, hazy air, plus laying on my belly made this a real tough shot to get, so I was lucky tonight.
