Monday Hawkwatch

As the 2nd Mountain Hawkwatch is on an 18,000 acre National Guard Training Facility we're used to being buzzed by a variety of military aircraft. This Marine Corps KC-130J Hercules overflew us several times and pretty low. I had my camera set on a very fast shutter speed of 1/5000 sec for migrating Raptors so that freezes the whirling propeller blades, in reality they were spinning very fast.

We spread some seed on the tree stump which attracted the usual crowd.
