Re: Bird in Flight

Hawks soaring high overhead - gave it a go - not great shots but some of my better high hawk shot to date - suggestions to improve my high hawk shooting? Besides waiting for them to come down a little closer to earth?
D610 + Nikkor 200-500 + Kenko 1.4 - hand held - shot mid-day in bright sun

The Hawk lands on their tree - and these small birds swarm the Hawk - and it works - the Hawk flies away.

I would only agree with this if they are inside the min focusing distance. Other than that, Robert Capra was spot-on!! In other words, I like this shot Kevin!
