Some stunning images in this set Pius. This may be the first time I've seen you use the word challenging. With your talent, this is very meaningful. Great set.

I bet you can't get one perched

Holy smokes Pius, not only an exceptionally attractive rarely seen bird on the forum but a slew of fantastic IF images

I wish you would number them but I like the ones with the blue, white, black and rust colored bird in it

Pius these shots are amazing. You must have arms like a blacksmith, to track these little rocks. I dare say you are correct about the focusing system, but your hand eye coordination is off the charts.

? For example, is the bird perched and you have spot (or zone) tracking locked on prior to flight and then you track as it flies? Alternatively are you catching this bird in mid-flight and just tracking. It would seem the former might lead to more shots, but only liftoff ones.

Dave

Hi David, I used zone and the bird was perched, I would track it taking off from the perch. I tried to pick it up in flight... Sony is not there yet...

for a fast bird like the bunting. Kinda reminds me of the pygmy owl fly's fast but just a short distance. You were correct in your analysis.
