Sad when I have hundreds of images sorted from a day out and I actually am happy with 80%.

This was very last light, had some god light beam through a cloud to fill the space and let me get this.

Hah!

No Joe there was no sneaking up on it at all. She didn't really care much, I think I probably could have walked within 50 feet before she'd fly off.

I didn't push it, no point in getting her too used to people.
