We have been to this rookery several times in the past, and have found it to be very productive for flight shots, nest building, feeding, etc.  We arrived as early as they would let us in, but were somewhat disappointed to find foggy conditions early on, and even after this started to lift, we were left with opaque white skies.  I'm honestly not sure how well this shot works, but got what I could under the circumstances.
