Here is a more interesting series of a Tree Swallow. These are cropped to about 6 MB ish.Looking forward to your images. I usually switch to single target bigger af point in larger bird say cranes heron or egrets or spoonbills.. for smaller like waders and since they are faster along with smaller ducks i keep on 3x3 .. open sky clean bg 5x5 can be best option to let predictive af do its job but rest in my case of locations it hunts picks and drops so fast with 5x5 so used to with 3x3 in better ways now.. still doing my notations of settings since i prpared the pdf and probably will do addition later with subjective details in it.
But yes BIF is been my prime choice of my 15 years birding shoots it gives lot of fun and wider aspects to understand them more than stationary.
Nailed it.. super series.Here is a more interesting series of a Tree Swallow. These are cropped to about 6 MB ish.

Damn... Not even closeSo this is a Grebe eating (trying to) a large carp about 100' away. This was handheld shooting leaning against my jeep @800mm, with the 1.4 digital TC plus cropped down to 30% of the orignal 4K frame so the quality and panning are kind of "rough" (guest Nutria at end is same lens settings but no crop from tripod). Best watched on youtube I think.
Beautiful bird and another fantastic series!!!Yellow-wattled Lapwing (Vanellus malabaricus)
