The time and effort was well worth it! It seems that unless you are in Florida, the Great Blue's don't like people!

With the constant flow of people at Bolsa Chica here in So Cal, you can walk up within 6 feet at times. They are really use to people, same with pelicans and egrets. But I prefer the places where it is more quiet for sure.

An excellent capture. If I may suggest, the image as it is in opinion too tight in the direction of the gaze. Either crop vertical or add canvas to the left to give a more open feeling

There will be days when you get the shot(s) you missed days, months or years before.

I appreciate any advice Ted. I have really started spending a lot of time in the field so I have a renewed interest in getting better.
