Good series; I think your best timing looks like it was on #3.

Those are great!! Swallowtailed kites do the same thing when they are congregating to avoid having others snatch their food. Last year I watched one eat larvae out of a wasp nest on the fly before it landed with a couple of hundred others. So cool.
