That is a smart way to capture BIF! I will definitely have to try that! Great captures and rendering. Stay well and keep on sharing.

Thank you for paying your models John...
As the weather goes south our feathered friends oft can have a challenge of finding their next meal...
Especially in Michigan!

Have a blessed holiday...

John, I LOVE these. I am so envious as I have yet to get a BIF...not for lack of trying. Thanks for sharing them

Thank you very much, Ourspolair. The Olympus cameras have a feature called Pro Capture that make it easy to catch an event that you can't anticipate in time to press the shutter.
