Surprise visit from a Bald Eagle
Jun 2, 2019 11:41:32 #
Looking out onto the small lake in our complex, I see a Bald Eagle in the reeds on the opposite shore. I ran for my camera (which had my new Tamron 18-400 mounted) to take pictures. The setting were originally set for a sunrise shooting earlier that morning (AP), so after some pics, I changed to shutter priority to try to freeze the eagles movements. All shot at 400 zoom, and cropped in PP. Some shots good, some mediocre. What a treat to have the animal so close.

Really nice opportunity and you took advantage of it. Good for you! Good to get some shots off first before worrying too much about camera settings. I've missed some while setting the camera.
