@tyan: I had my finger on the camera waiting to take the photo, it seemed I was waiting for a long time until I thought I had the perfect shot :-)

You got this one spot on Vanessa!
You've done a brilliant job getting these birds in flight, I'm still trying to work out how to get them with out blurred wings!

@MaryB: Thank you Mary, I followed the birds with the camera and then took the photo so the bird flew into the shot sort of - if you know what I mean, but I did have to wait for the perfect shot though.

Nice one pal, it aint easy to shoot birds in action and you have captured it really well here. :)

@Rahul: Thank you Rahul, least these are better shots then of the moon at night - I'm useless when it comes to that :-). Then again Rome wasn't built in a day either and I can only better myself.

Really good shot! I agree with everyone- birds are hard to capture. Camera or otherwise ;)
