At Otter Bay ferry terminal Wednesday I had the Z7 with the 300 f4.0 Pf. A 
nice light combination. 
The eagle was skittish and flew over the terminal but did not land - likely 
because I was wearing my spring clothes instead of my winter ones. 

Focus capture was very good - about the same as with the D500. Locked on 
follow focus was also about the
same - helped perhaps by the new animal eye focus software that I had just 
downloaded.

Three images for your viewing - all at 1/1000 f9.0 exp comp -0.3 with auto 
ISO. All cropped to about half the frame.
