On this flight I was ready as the bird jumped in the air to leave the rookery.

The Egret dropped a little lower than I had thought but the focal length was right. At this angle I could follow the bird right out and over the tree line.

The speed was wrong…

She flew a grand total of 3 meters and dropped down. All that work and she went nowhere.

I did get the jump off, but she just wanted to tease me.
