I had fun trying to catch this fellow in flight! Lots of photos....just a few keepers! Still a lot of fun!

Nice Karen! Waiting for the exit from the tree must have been tense…🤩

Tough shots; wonderful photos!

excellent launch sequence Karen

Excellent job Karen, these are not easy shots to take and have them in focus.
Thank you guys for your encouraging comments. You don't know how much they mean to me!

The tour leader repeatedly mentioned that trying to get in-flight shots was "too hard" (for us??) and we should focus on more "doable" shots. I knew if I took home a hundred shots of a small head peeking out of a small hole - they would ALL end up in the trash. I saw this as an opportunity to practice...... Indeed all the "peeking" shots were sent to the trash, but I am happy with these keepers.

Not seeing your EXIF Karen….whatever it’s called .. Is your D850 getting some luv?🤩
I sold my D850 2-3 years ago. For these images, I used my Z8 and 600mm TC, 600mm (cropped in post), one image is at f5.6 @ 1/6400 and ISO 12,00!!! and the other image is 6.3, 1/6400 and ISO 8,000. Lighting fluctuated quite a bit as it was during a light rain.
