Ouch! I feel your pain about the speed.. you are not alone!    at least you got to see him and the photo brings remembrance anyway.. I had so many slides with motion blur or slight off focus back in the manual days..that looked good at first glance when I got the slides but were useless for getting them published, for stock, for prints.. but especially painful when the flick of a switch would have saved you...

You'll see more of them again.. they are coming back and you are in the right place

After we buried my mom yesterday on my way to visit with the friend who was 
like another daughter to Mom I saw what looked like blackbirds hassling a 
vulture, which seemed really odd, then I realized that it was a bald eagle.  I 
pulled over, grabbed the K-3 with a bigma and grabbed some shots.  It was set 
at Av, ISO 100 f/10, bracketing 0 and -2 stops.  Lesson learned:  don’t 
photograph birds in flight locked at ISO 100.
In theory this would be a good use of user modes, though I could have just gone 
to Tav at a higher shutter speed.

On a larger scheme these aren’t great photos, but they are some of my best bald 
eagle photos (especially in flight) so far.

As an aside, it occurred to me that bald eagle would actually be a better name 
for vultures than birds that look like Edgar Winter with wings.
