Woke up to some parakeets making a racket 🙂 I need to get these beauties in flight one of these days !
Nikon D3, 300mm 2.8 VR, ISO800, 1/1250, F5.6 (manual exposure)

I then decided to put in some flight shot practice on the pigeons that were flying around.
The flight shot I liked most from todays practice .
Nikon D3, 300mm2.8 VR, ISO800, 1/1250 @F4 (manual exposure ), AF-C mode, Dynamic Area AF
no images were found
And here is a rather abstract shot I liked. Totally unintended and, I misses the focus on the bird 🙂 However I liked the way it turned out 🙂
Nikon D3, 300mm2.8 VR, ISO800, 1/2000 @F3.5 (manual exposure ),
no images were found
So if you have a camera and a window/ balcony, put your camera in manual and practice some flight shots.
Tips:
1. Acquire early
2. Follow the bird with hot reticule on the bird
3. Squeeze shutter & follow through.
Above all…EXPERIMENT & HAVE FUN !
