Marvelous stuff, Don.
They work best as a series. The one shot that stands out to me is the last one. There is some separation between birds- yet that extended right leg tells us exactly what's going on.
A once-in-a-lifetime viewing experience- AND you nailed it photographically.

Thanks Charlie. I always consider myself fortunate to witness this type of action. Then I have to slow my heart down and get the shot. It keeps me young. Don

Don,
Way to capture the peak moment here. The series is absolutely spectacular. This must have been a really challenge as the ostrich's I've seen in Tanzania and Kenya are both amazingly fast and spook really quickly.

Simply fantastic!

Thanks Bruce. It was patience and being in the right place before the action occurred. Don
