For flight stuff, I always offset the AF point so the bird is flying into the wider part of the frame. They're always going the same direction at this spot, so it's easy!
I actually cooled the image down on the slider (I really like blue) but might have gone a bit far boosting the oranges tones.
Setting sensitivity -2, Acc/Decel tracking -1, AF point switching 0. I've honestly never found much of a difference with these settings. Getting the big lens
up and the bird centered as fast as possible (i.e. technique) seems to be the biggest variable in my experience!
