Great shot Yves, any in flight shots are tough and these little guys are so quick.

Thank you Clifford. Success is not that important because there is a great satisfaction in the chalenge itself, in the making off.

Terrific shot Yves. I like the composition you chose as the bird is in an opening that really makes her stand out. And I really like the dive she is in. Agree with Jane it tells a story. Well done Yves.

Yves Langlois

Thank you so much Debra. The left side was in the shadow so I expect the bird will choose to quit on the lighted right side. It did (with a little push from Mother Nature)

Jane LeBlanc

Flight shots are always tricky, Yves, no matter the light. You did very well...and it tells a story ,too. Nice job.

Yves Langlois

Thank you for your precious comments Jane.

Description
I first did some shots at that cape may warbler while it was standing on the leaves with red berries on the left. Then I decided to stand ready for a bird in flight shot at the moment it will quit the leaves. Good results are rare but I keep on trying (never know). I was lucky on that one (but It is not exactly the kind of flight I had in mind).
