How did you shoot thse pictures? They are inspiring. I was just at Morro Rock and was lucky enough to see falcons flying. I shot movies and you can see them flying but most of all you can hear them. My lens would never have been able to capture the birds unless they came pretty close. I would love to hear what you used for these pictures.

Thanks for sharing,
Laurie
