Quite the speed, there is a contrail :)

Thank you, boss!

Thanks for noticing the contrail! Turns out, my little sparrow friend is actually a secret government experiment in avian jet propulsion. Just kidding, it was probably just a string or something.

Whether you're a majestic egret or a tiny swallow, the size of your wings doesn't define your ability to soar.

Very nicely captured shot of the Pacific Swallow,RAL! I noticed he's leaving a little trail behind him.:-)

Excellent crow shot, RAL! Crows can definitely be hard at times to to get good flight shots of. The all black color doesn't want to give up much detail.

Awesome, 3D looking flight shot fo the Common Cuckoo, Vassilis! It's tack sharp and really appealing against the green and yellow background.

House crow. It's true that they are hard to catch in flight.
