These are beauties Herb and I see you use a lot of reach. For me I find a shorter focal length makes tracking these speed demons easier.

Herb, these are great! I can't imagine (successfully) following these guys with a 500mm f4 lens.

Remarkable Herb, I know how fast and difficult it can be to get a decent shot of these guys. Very well done.
