The D850 shoots 9 frames per second and the buffer stops at 20 fps, so as close as I can estimate the dive took 2.2 seconds. The lens was a Sigma 600 Contemporary that has performed tremendously. The last image (#10) was a few seconds after the actual dive and from military experience I compare it to a: "Victory Flyby"that our fighter jets flew over us as we cheered our appreciation...OORAH!
Wonderful, masterful sequence. Did you use any special equipment to track the bird in flight?

Truly, a difficult sequence to capture. You set your self up perfectly, wind at your back. great light and perfect tracking. I continue to strive for your perfection. I think in the last shot it did get its lunch rotated.
