I went kayaking the other day you can see some of those shots here
Was hoping to see a lot of birds so I took my big camera as well... but didn't really see anything... until the very end when this guy let me get pretty close for a decent amount of time.
This was taken from the kayak while being constantly blown by the wind so i'd have to paddle to the side and let the wind push me by while getting some shots and then do it again a couple more times before he got bored of me and flew away.
Taken on Klamath Lake, Oregon
That's Mount McLoughlin in the background
