Great stuff Geoff... these buggers are so darn to find in the viewfinder let alone track and photograph.
cheers,
bruce
Thanks Bruce...in my experience it is all about location, location, location....you need enough of them around for lots of attempts, you need them passing on regular flight paths and you also need a background that isn't too crazy to grab the focus away. Then the rest is down to a bit of skill, a lot of Auto AF and a lot of luck

These are all superb! Getting good images of these fast and erratic birds is a real challenge. I particularly like the frame with two birds. Is the upper one contemplating stealing the bug?

Thanks Dave, I think that one was eyeing the other one's catch, I have three or four out of that sequence as it flew above the other. It was actually 2-3x higher above the other but I moved them closer in the final image.

Thanks Morris...thank goodness for the lighter lenses we have today...I think these would be next to impossible with heavier gear.

Top notch my friend.

Thanks Pius. Half of these fly for Sony, the other half for Nikon
