Not sure how common it is, but they seem to be opportunistic especially in winter when open water is harder to find. Pretty cool to watch!

🪶 I am just LOVING the action capabilities of my new Sony A9. Here’s a favorite from my first outing, I love how the detail, sharpness and light all come together.
Check out my new gallery and print shop!
I have a few favorites available for prints and hope to add more. It feels great to have my work online even if it’s mostly just for me to enjoy :)
Any other Sony shooters out there? Just tried out my first Sony today, a used A9, and I was blown away. Send me any tips for making the most of this set up for action and bird photography!
