Very quiet morning. I was grateful the Westerns showed up to keep me company, even if only for a few minutes before the Merlin spooked them and they fled for the day.
My favourite pic is oddly the Moon and Jupiter at opposition. On the raw, you can actually see the bands and 3 of the Galilean moons.

Landscapes with the 600GM....nice
No rush to come back here....nothing to shoot...no fledged ospreys around the lagoon yet.

In my garden bed in front of my home; Breinigsville, PA.
Another quiet morning. I spotted a flock of Westerns flying towards me with a Peregrin Falcon in tow. They stuck around for about 20 seconds and then saw neither for the rest of the morning.
This hobby can be rather cruel at times. Nothing happening on land, but in the distance I can see humpbacks feeding and breaching, albeit too far away to do anything but gawk at them.
