This video gives a good idea of how windy it was. Notice the cloud shadows on the ice. All the clips in this video are normal speed.
What started off as a normal flight over the Blow-me-Down Brook near the Plainfield Village quickly evolved into a riveting experience for me as a pilot and wildlife photographer/videographer. The still photos below lead up to the encounter. See if you spot the creature in the last three stills. The video shows the rest of the story.
This video is 15 minutes long but has a lot of much closer footage.
