Great follow up to my gull post, Bill! Love that crab fighting back scene . And that 5diii really does an amazing job at those high ISOs! Young Dave is a fantastic spotter, wish I could have been with you.
that darned mode wheel got turned to Av (f16) - needless to say, the images came out a 'little' blurred! Its either spring for the $$ to get the lock installed or buy a 5Diii
Terry, that happens. The "gotta shoot now" thing makes you rush. Last weekend, I watched about a dozen trumpeter swans fly directly over a group of photographers. I was stuck on the other side of the road. Two minutes earlier and I'd have had the chance for a great shot.
As you said, nobody gets them all!
Well, I'd say go for the 5Diii and be done with it.
this last shot was taken on 1/3 - same place. He sure looks healthy...He moved through the fence before I could get a good shot.

I'll keep watching, Bill - and I'll keep the camera on the dining room table with all the proper settings . Who knows, I just might actually capture a view of the Sasquatch!
