The Nikon 3D focusing keeps up pretty well with BIF so I use AF. This too requires practice. The camera focusing system - ANY camera focusing system can use all the help it can get from the person behind the camera. Between my practicing and Nikon's really fast focusing, I get lucky ... a lot. Take a look at my shots in the BIF forum of an eagle being harassed. These birds were several hundred yards away and all over the sky. AF has a hard time keeping up with the bird and usually focuses on the background mountains.

Sometimes I try that, but out here there are so many trees that you only have about a 5 sec window of opportunity by the time you zoom in and out the bird is out of sight. It's a good idea. Thanks againAnother suggestion on aiming is to zoom-out (wide) so you can find the bird, then zoom-in to shoot.
