Heather and I are still in Cape May, NJ and we finished up with our group today. Tony Medici has been on a number of trips with us in the past and he has a history of sometimes leaving just before something good happens. Not sure if it's good karma for us or bad karma for him. This afternoon it was cloudy after raining in the morning. We decided to head to Stone Harbor having spent the weekend locally in Cape May; there are usually a greater variety of smaller shore-birds around Stone Harbor and with the cold front coming through today we knew we could expect just about anything. We encouraged Tony to join us, reminding him of what happens when he bugs out early..... This Peregrine Falcon made it's way down from the north to find itself tired on the open beach. I got low and slowly moved toward it, while shooting with stacked converters, until I eventually got closer than I would have thought possible. I couldn't help but think of what Tony was missing....
