     Might be.  I was surprised when I first approached it and it flew off 
before I could get the camera into position.  Usually you can get to six feet 
or so before they notice you, but not this one.  

     The photo could have been a bit clearer if I'd had the opportunity to 
mount the pistol gip on the lens, but that was in the daypack.  I now see a 
need to have it somewhere on the belt along with everything else so that it's 
readily available for situations like this.
