As an afterword, besides myself there were three other photographers plus an onlooker present in witnessing the scene. When the chick took to the air, everbody was holding their breadth. As the chick finally landed safely back to the nesting tree, applause broke out. In the excitement, Mike forgot to shoot his camera and missed the whole scene with no images to show, Ursula went to her car and took out the cheese cake she  bought earlier in her favorite native German bakery to share with everybody. Our onlooker (Jane?) was jumping up and down with joy and gave everybody a hug. Gwen kept her cool and was busy shooting like the rest of us. Well I thought it would be nice to capture a scene of the moment for the group as something to remember, so I swang my camera around and the last picture is the result. I  focused at the trees a thousand feet away with a telephoto lens! What a scene!
