    A little BIF practice.

    Herring Gulls make for good practice. They are a real challenge, but a lot of fun.

    Very nice shots. I've been stalking the quaker parrots in the park across the street, but they've managed to elude, evade, or escape any nice tight BIF shots so far. I'll get the speedy little buggers eventually...

    Ha Ha! lol, thanks for the correction Mike.
    With my shooting of birds in flight it's always about the focus.
    These are really nice shots.

    Nice job, Mike.

    I like #3 - the wing position and shadows add depth.
