The rookery was in full swing the last week of March with a lot of flying, squawking, and opportunities. These were taken with Canon 5d4 iso 800 and a Sigma Sport 150-600. Some birds were so close we had to switch to the a 70-200 for composition. It is a great place and next year I will get the photo pass and stay until sundown when the lighting is softer.

Excellent set. Well done. I haven't been there in awhile and it is only about a 30min drive from where I live. Maybe next year!
