Those babies are quick and never fly in a straight line. I'm in Awe!!! I'm going back when the light clears for some better ones. The flight shots are marginal quality at best. Handhold a small fast lens on either all points af or center point and fire away. ---------------

Lame-Duck I have indeed had pine nuts More info | Apr 23, 2007 18:25 | #11 Very nice shots.....those in flight pictures are quite difficult to get (at least from my experience). The shot of the Tree Swallow is also an excellent capture. LD, or Mike
