... as trying to photograph swallows in flight?
Oh yeah, warblers! They never sit still. Yellow-rumped warblers have invaded, they were everywhere at the park this morning.

canonloader Cream of the Crop  More info | Apr 18, 2009 05:12 | #11 HA, I've tried it and had a little luck, about 10% luck, and they weren't really as good as yours. Best I have done is to get them hovering by the nest hole or under the bridge when they enter their mud huts. Mitch- ____...^.^...____

Apr 19, 2009 09:24 | #15 Thanks all. They did remind of me of bats when they were flying. I was using the 400 f/5.6 which is certainly easier than trying to hold up the 500, I'll keep trying and hopefully get a little better at it! -Liz
