So this is probably my favorite bird photograph yet. I’ve been trying and trying to get a shot of a bird in flight that was in focus and not too blurry. It’s harder than you would think, unless you practice, so I have been working on it. While this photo is not perfectly in focus, it’s very close, and I really love the coloring of this particular bird, that I don’t know what it is.
I’m also a fan of the way the light is hitting him, so I thought I’d share. One thing to note, he’s carrying dinner back home in his beak. I hope you guys like him.

Amazing capture! You are right. Birds are a difficult subject to capture without it being a bit ‘off’. You did beautifully!
Thank you, it was one of 200 attempts, I think I got maybe 3 or 4 in flight that were worthwhile!
A photographer’s job is never done! : )
Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful!!!
Thank you, it’s one of my favorite shots to date.
