These birds are great fun to watch but definitely a challenge to photograph in flight. They are with us such a short time and it is a pleasure to see them arrive each year.

You have done exceptionally well to capture this very fast character - and to show the full wingspread too. Well done Judy.
Great pose and I hope they come up here soon. I would sharpen the bird some more.
Guess I will have to again try getting one of these since you have demonstrated so well that it can be done. Nice work. I like pose and the lighting making the details so visible.

Tough bird to track in flight. Love the wing spread Judy! Agree about more sharpening. Perhaps a bit more shutter speed.
A bit more sharpening as said, but gosh, what a pose! You must have worked hard for this and the result is awesome! :)
Good for you , my friend nailing one of the speeding bullets.
I saw them at Wako and got one, but not at Green Cay, I wonder why...
