the museum has a great Raptor free fly demonstration 2 times a day - It was hard to think that I had too much lens but probably should have used my 70-200 as opposed to my 400 but got some real good close up flying shots plus some great portrait shots on snags

Awesome. Was that the 5.6 or 2.8 variety of the 400?
