Duck dinner with no buckshot to pick out!
I bet the duck had other plans for the day.

Gorgeous shots. You must have been psyched. It is such a thrill to be in the right place and right time to capture nature like this. Well done. D850 great camera.
Thanks Joel!
I really was psyched and thrilled to be there to see and shoot the moment.
The D850 has become my go-to bird camera, mostly taking over from a trusty D5.
However, the D5 still outperforms the D850 for BIF motion tracking and in low light.
Lens is a 400mm ƒ/2.8. Almost everything hand held.

Saw one take a great blue heron in the parking lot at Costco a couple years back…never seen or heard of that before either.
Wow, that must have been quite a sight! GBH's are formidable.
Might have been one of those rare Kirkland eagles :)
