Here is a great timing and focus photo taken by, my favorite quest photograph, Wanda. Here timing, composition and subject focus was spot on. The birds flush is unpredictable, they fly fast, catching it with a camera is no easy feat. Well done Wanda. You really got the shot!
Wanda, I think you must have misunderstood my comment! Bill made it very clear that you took the "photo" shot and I was complimenting you on it! ... I was teasing bill if HE had got the "shotgun" shot of the bird! LOL
long time no hear from!!! I'll have you know, I am the one who got this shot! NOT BILL! His new camera is SWEET! I totally lucked out getting the bird in the image and having it reasonably focused. Timber pointed the bird. I raised the camera and pressed the button. When the bird was flushed, I just kept the camera to my eye and kept on pressing the button and did my best to keep the bird in the frame. Total luck that Timber, Dave and the bird are all in the picture!
