There was a tree at the edge of a farmer's field that was full of red-winged blackbirds, a site that was easy to spot and could easily be heard through a partially open car window.  I pulled over.  This small tree full of blackbirds would have made a good photo but I would have needed my kit lens to capture the full tree.  I didn't bring my kit lens (18mm - 150mm) ... again.  I decided to take a few shots of the top of the tree with by telephoto lens and just as I was engaged in that task a dark shadow rapidly passed over my head ... what the ... ah, I see.  OK, with the tune of the Association's song Along comes Mary, everyone on cue ... Along comes Ethan in an awkward attempt to catch a blackbird.  The whole flock took flight and confused Ethan into bewilderment.  He's got a lot to learn.
