I stood along side of an estuary watching this Turn flying up and down and diving for herrings. I was so caught up trying to capture it flying past me that I didn't want to leave my spot. I got a couple of good ones with it flying past me with a herring in it's mouth but the real action was it diving which was happening 20 meters away from me. By the time I moved closer to it's dive spot it finished hunting and flew back to it's tree! lol

Great shot! Love the back lighting of the wings and tail feathers. I must try that, if opportunity knocks!
