Sometimes it does work though. Caught a few white specs out of the corner of my eye passing the reservoir this afternoon and just knew they weren't gulls.
Ah one and ah two...

I'm hoping they're still there tomorrow.

Fantastic series Mike . The last three really tell the story. They are something to watch when they are agitated aren't they. I hope you get more to share with us.

Love the action; esp. #3. This sort of thing makes you want to get back there. Don

I agree, great control of the whites resulting to these excellent photos. You should have a tutorial on how to achieve or mastering whites, i'll be the first one to read it

Thanks everyone, it was fun watching these guys interact. A few good opportunities for IF's as they kept chasing each other around to get the best fishing spot. Regretfully it seems they were just passing through as I haven't seen them since. At least I got a little action before they moved along.
