Put the camera and lens in my backpack. I saw a kestrel hovering but by the time I had stopped on got my camera out it was gone. I do sometimes ride with the camera and lens around my neck but it is a bit dangerous.I find the bike great for covering fair distances but you do miss shots that you would have got if you were walking.</blockquote>
