Such pretty birds! And yes, I feel your pain. My BIF are always blurry! I’ve yet to capture the kite who lives behind my house in focus!
They are indeed pretty phv. Blurry is the usual result for me also trying to capture these in flight. vz

Nice, vz. I've tried to get them in flight, too. No good ones yet.
Thanks kp. I was beginning to think it was just me, a bungling, inept wanna be wildlife photographer. vz

This little guy was literally under my feet while I was photographing other critters. He/she was on a bridge abutment just twittering away. I tried to catch some of them while they were flying but that proved to be an exercise in frustration. I know it can be done because I've seen tack sharp photos of them while in flight. I'm just not there yet. vz
what a cute little fluffball and a nice shot...love the barn swallow's colors.

We used to call them intersection birds, they were always swooping down to get bugs that fell off when cars were stopped.
