Finally was able to watch the Loon's doing their mating dance and captured a few shots of it and was able to get a diving shot of a seagull!! I have tried and tried and tried to get a diving shot of a bird and this is the first that is actually in focus!! I was in the middle of the lake on the boat so I was very surprised that they came out in focus.

Yes it is...the water temp was about 49, I probably took 200 shots of the seagulls diving for them but deleted them all except for this guy. There was one spot at the end of the island that they would go to for lunch. Then they would fly to the shore and throw it/shake it until the pinchers fell off.
