A lot of people burst when photographing birds in flight. I prefer to bounce my finger with the rhythm of the wings so that I can get wings up and wings down. This can save the number of images you need to sort through when you get home as well as card space and battery life.
Man's best friend, they're not. Their evolutionary branch split off from dogs millions of years ago and are much more closely related to European wolves than domestic dogs. So while they may be called wild dogs, their other name, Painted Wolves, is probably more accurate and certainly more descriptive. Taken in Botswana's Okavango Delta just after sunset, the kill, which looks brutal is actually quite a bit more humane than kills by lions and other cats. In less than a minute the impala has gone into shock and once the pack converges on it will totally consume it within 10-15 minutes. https://photos.smugmug.com/Botswana-2017-Sandibe/i-4f5J3jS/0/03f1c409/XL/EG1_2127wilddogkilllr-XL.jpg

I removed two sign posts from this image.

I can imagine you have crazy-large finger muscles from photographing humming birds Nice shot of the hooter, wish I could find some around here.

Some day I'll get a decent photo of a humming bird. Then again, possibly I will not...
