My pleasure, they are not the easiest of birds to catch in flight.

Nice timing, Kelly. I love how the focus on the face is nice and sharp, while the wings are blurred giving the sense of movement during flight. Great job!

thank you dave, The light levels weren't great so I had no chance of getting the wings sharp, but I like the 'sense of motion' style (though I normally mess it up by having the shutter too slow) too so I'm happy with this one!

You're very welcome. And I know exactly what you mean when it comes to working in lower light, happens so often with the big cats too. But absolutely, the sense of motion to it is something that I really enjoy about this shot.
