Very nice flight shots.

Very nice BIF's – but the background on the 3rd is just awesome!

Do you mind if I post some of my today's chickadee shots here in this thread? I've got some black-capped, and chestnut-backed. :)

Chickadees in flight. That should be a whole catagory all by itself. Great shots. - TF

Thanks AMDA and go ahead. If you judged by the number I have on disc then you can NEVER have enough... LOL

I'm still trying to get a tack-sharp BIF... but if Loupey can do it, then I should be able too... sometime... :thumbsup:

Those are nice ones, that last one is very cool. The little guys move so darn fast it will be amazing if I ever get one tack sharp in flight.
