How unusual that she would look back over her shoulder while in flight (I assume she is hovering) ... it seems she was quite taken by you :) Beautiful, clear and unique shots, John ...
That's what happens to me every time I try to photograph a bird - it flies off. But I never end up with such an excellent shot of a bird in flight as you have done. Great shot!!!
Beautiful flight shots.

Thanks Andrea! Yes, she was hovering. Not sure why she kept looking at me, probably wondering what I was doing!

Great shots John, especially the ones where she is looking around at you.
ReplyDeleteThanks Roy! Shame she wasn't facing towards me, but the wind was in the wrong direction.

Thanks Derek! She was always ready to disappear if I got any closer and eventually she did!

ReplyDeleteThanks John! Yes, just making sure where I was!
