We had flyover's her too.. I can't tell you how inappropriate and
insensitive such a thing was to have particularly in NYC. We are
constantly being reminded these days of 9/11 in the media and , alas,
from one of my friends on Facebook who asked which was worse, 9/11 or
Covid?. and from our Reps . It has been so (deliciously, to me) quiet
during the lockdown - and while the birds were announced on Tv and such
there had to be a lot of people who were here 20 years ago may not have
been aware of the plan . The other thing was, that there were far too
many people ignoring social distancing who came out and watch the
planes! Oy.
You had the timing right , seems to me, but I'd rather look at
cormorants in formation - nice shot, scary subject

The Canadian air force has an aerobatic team flying incredibly old jet
trainers, Canadair CT-114 Tutors. These planes were put into service
in the early 1960s, and while retired as training jets, are still
being used by the Snowbirds.
They are doing a cross country flyover, and today they flew over my
neck of the woods.
As always for these things, I got a late start and wasn't in the best
position for the flyover, but I was in a pretty good place to see them
flying in from their home base.
This was shot with the K3 and the A*600mm lens.
It's not great, it's not a lens I use enough to be really good with,
but I tried....
