BIF - Birds in Flight. Those lovely, graceful images of some of natures' most beautiful creatures soaring in the sky.

Of, if you're anything like me, you end up with tons of images of bird butts, wing tips, beaks, blurry things that might be birda and blank frames showing blue sky.

Not sure how many thousand BIF images I've taken that ended up in the Recycle Bin, but it represents a fair portion of all my shots. Here's some of the few that ended up worth keeping.

Hello ngc. you repied to a post I made where I complained about a shot that I took of venus, Jupiter, and the moon and asked what kind of picture did I want ? Well, I want to take pictures like these. They're beautiful. I've got maybe three shots of BIF but nothing as nice as these. I just want to shoot um like I see um and have um look this good.

What kind of lens and shutter speed are you using to get such crisp shots? I too have way too many bird butts, unfocused feathers, etc etc. and am looking for guidance. Beautiful photos. Thanks for sharing.
