This bird stayed around us for a few hours this morning, and there was noting else going on so I stayed around as well. This guy was not after any fish at all, in fact he was hunting down Chipmunks. He come close a few times and missed them all.

    Thanks for the comments Maestro, how close was I. I was in the 12 foot range at times with a 400mm lens, this guy was so busy trying to catch a Chipmunk that he let me get in close. I guess he was hungry and food was on his mind and not me getting close to him.

    Thanks again.
