When the sun got too low for my BIF fest with the gulls, I packed up my gear, retracted and capped the lens and started back. Out of the corner of my eye I detected motion. I uncapped the camera, turned and hit the camera button (still on multiple shots). Those darn circling ducks finally showed up.

The camera gods take pity on the old shooters and I got the attached series.

Downloads are best.

They appear surprised for sure. Great shots if you’d been waiting for them let alone “on the fly!”
