Pure Luck...
I couldn't have posed this better, light and everything else. I did crop a bit and changed the angle of the shot, but the shadows and Ms. Phoebe remained consistent. Shot at Crystal Cove, CA. while walking on the beach with a *bunch* of other folks, 1/3200th at f9 ISO 1250.
That shot took some good reactions and experience, Charlie, and only a little luck. Well done!
Excellent. Small birds in flight are really tough.

I totally agree! I've become a bit geeky lately, with the obsession. I figure if you can get the little ones, everything else is, well, I don't want to say "easy"...haha, but DOABLE!
So, did you buy a lottery ticket too? This was your lucky day!!
Nice capture. But luck is needed for every bird photograph. Luck and skill.
