This little duck could not out fly the eagle…who now has a tasty meal.
Two gulls were duking it out over the clam or mussel.
This cooper’s hawk (or maybe sharp shinned-can see the tail ends) was diving over and over in the tall grasses off 3 crabs road. Hope he got a good lunch!
Another very HARD task was to try to capture a bird in motion…but to capture the blur. You do this by setting your shutter speed pretty slow about 1/25th and trying to move your camera with the bird-at exactly the same speed it’s moving without moving your camera any other direction. You take hundreds of shots and pray that one of them comes out.
The goal is for the head and feet to be clear and the wings and background will be in motion. This was one of my few keepers…
