I'm getting closer, enough so that I'm willing to share a couple images now. These were taken with the 5Dc/70-200mm 2.8 is ii. I need more FPS so will attempt this again with the 7D. I think I was a little heavy-handed with the sharpening.  2. Here turning-tail to catch a nibble to eat.  I welcome your C&C. I'll be back when I get some better examples.

Finally I just started to notice that some would fly a loose pattern. So I prefocused to that general area and waited until it flew in the frame and just clicked away. It was the only way I could do this without getting dizzy with my 400 5.6. Did get a nice banked turn. Robert
