I was with an Audubon group this morning and our leader pointed out a Peregrine Falcon near the top of a transmission tower. I took a couple ID shots but it was so distant and so high any image would be close to useless. I continued to watch the bird when all of a sudden it took off and headed even further away from me. I saw it starting to bank and head back and I just had enough time to change my shutter speed and get my camera aimed up at it. I really didn't think I would get a decent shot but as it was, the light was perfect and I was pleasantly surprised when I looked at it on review.
