I was at my favorite spot watching one of the Ospreys, when it suddenly leaped from its perch and dove on a Gull scavenging something dead in the water. With its talons extended it stole the piece of meat that the Gull was eating and took off with the Gull in hot pursuit. I wasn't in position to capture the actual steal, but I was able to capture part of The Chase. I am still learning about my camera and shooting moving objects so there are some depth of field issues. If I could do it again I would raise my f-stop to f-16 instead of f-8. I guess that is the challenge of wildlife photography.......no do overs.
