This was one of those frustrating mornings driving me to take that Canon 100-400mm Telephoto lens off my wish list and put it on the camera. I really really wanted to reach out to see what the Bald Eagle was eating much to the dismay of the Ravens, and I just couldn't.

The lens will be here tomorrow....
