Re: Birds in flight (smaller birds)

I have shot rifles since a boy at targets, moving targets and feral pests so the following abilty and stalking comes from there I guess. But it takes time to get use to the feel of the camera, especially that the difference in trigger feel. I also never used a hide or tripod to photograph birds yet either, all hand held.

Great work - I like the challenge of getting little birds as well - but haven't got as close as you are managing here. You must have good field craft skills as well as photography ability
