How do you get a dragons attention?

Header pretty much sums it up. I've tried shooting arrows at them and I don't have any spells in range... what's the trick?

I yell at them(unrelenting force). Then kill them.

I also primarily use Shouts, but sometimes (not always) they result in them flying away... bummer.

If you get one that endlessly circles, try running for the nearest structure/cave/etc. on it's flight paths. They seem to have trigger points where they will ignore you if you aren't close enough.

The tower near Whiterun is a good example of this, the dragon that spawns there has never aggro'd to me until I run up near the tower ruins. This is after the story one, of course. It also spawns very frequently, so it's a good place to see what the range is.

I prefer not to get their attention. Instead I just follow them to see what does have their attention, and where they want to land. Then I kill them at that spot when they do land.
