Fun at the Van Zoo - Flight

One of the neat aspics of the Vancouver Zoo raptor show is that the birds are exercised daily by allowing them to fly freely. Amazingly, they swoop down so close to the spectators that sometimes their wings touch your head. Here is an opportunity to learn and practice all the camera skills required to capture images of these birds in the field.
