Trap focus is not a burst, it's a single frame taken using a manually focused lens. The camera is set to single frame focus lock and you hold down the shutter release. When the camera detects focus it trips the shutter. Like bursting and using the in focus images, this method requires luck to capture special moments.
Autofocus and tripping the shutter when you have a special moment will produce stunning results, save card space and lots of work sorting images after the shoot.

Maybe it's not clear in my guide, but everything is done fully manual, even the shutter release. My method is not different than what you describe, just more complex and less reliant on technology.
Trap Focus is not limited to cameras with auto focus systems or single shots. I'm not a birding expert by any means, but I have been doing this long before I ever owned an autofocus camera.
Thanks for the feedback!
