For the Bird Watchers Out There

I first spotted them across the river, and I said to myself, ?Man, I wish they would come this way!? since I had my camera with me. Well, they did!

The Mississippi River is about a half mile wide at the point where I was, and even at that distance I could easily see the extent of their wings. The bottom shot is with them passing maybe about 100 feet above me with the camera zoomed in as far as it would go. It only does 3x zoom.
