Female Cardinal In Flight

****

Incredible capture ... I can't fathom getting a good sized bird in flight sharply but you did with a smaller bird - great job.

Nice one scott, regards, RK!

Amazing! Sharp, good composition. I would love to get such a shot. Thanks for showing it can be done.

Wonderful Scott, terrific capture. Catching a small bird in flight given their speed is a true test of technical ability and you have passed with flying colors---(for anyone who doesn't understand the extreme degree of difficulty achieveing such a sharp shot :) Heck, I'm still working on blurry ones that are still in the frame :)

Wow! Great capture, I have tried to get this shot many time with no success! Regards, B.

Wow! Great one, Scott. Did you know you had the capture right away before looking at your monitor or were you pleasantly surprised? Well done.

Thanks, everybody. Keith - With a dof of only an inch, maybe two, and given the hit to miss ratio of capturing a cardinal in flight, I never have any idea until I zoom in all of the way on the lcd of my camera.

That s it:-) Regards, Fritz

I presume that it is very hard to capture a bird with open wings dear Scott :) like drops :)
