Yellow Rumped Warbler's Fly-By by taffy

Yellow Rumped Warbler's Fly-By

Warblers are on their migration path through Chicago, providing a lot of bird-in-flight practice. I'm noticing that if I take 300 photos on a birdwalk, I can easily delete 200 or more due to blur, partial birds, etc. SO glad not to be using film!!
A fabulous capture, lovely detailed on the outstretched wings.Fav😊

Wonderful flashes of yellow on the chest, something we might not notice unless from this angle!

Super shot.

Stunning capture! Yes with photos of birds in flight there is a lot of deleting! When i get the odd one in focus I celebrate! Lol!

I sometimes wonder how they got any good BIF's before digital. They were either a lot better than I or they ran through a lot of film and developing chemicals.

Amazing wing detail

@gardencat So true!!

Fabulous capture, got the timing just right.
April 25th, 2022  
superb!

It is a nice feeling when capturing the wing span
April 25th, 2022  
This is wonderful!

Super capture...perfect wings

Beautiful bird and great timing.

Nice timing on this one! I agree, film seems quite antiquated now.
April 25th, 2022  
Wonderful capture.

A lovely shot - I chased a pheasant today, it moved faster than I did!

Oh my isn’t that the truth. This is a wonderful capture of this very cool bird. I don’t see a yellow rump, but I do see yellow on his neck. 😊

Gorgeous.

Wow great timing and details!

Beautiful capture with those wings fully extended.
April 26th, 2022  
Awesome timing!
April 26th, 2022  
A beauty. I love these birds. I just brought home 547 shots and ended up with 20!

@jgpittenger You've made my night! Good to know I'm not the only one with so many deletes!
April 26th, 2022  
You got a great shot on this one. Yeah, I would really hate to have to use film. I go through a lot of shots and delete a bunch. Especially with the bif shots.
April 26th, 2022  
Wonderful capture. (And I can relate to the delete percentage!)
April 26th, 2022  
What a great shot, Taffy. Those wings are amazing!
April 26th, 2022  
Those outstretched wings are wonderful.
April 26th, 2022  
Super capture fav!
April 26th, 2022  
Terrific bif shot. Fav

This is a super difficult shot to capture and nice work here. Have you tried Sharpen AI from Topaz studios? I think it would have the potential to sharpen up the BIF… just a thought.
April 26th, 2022  
Lovely capture with wings apart
April 26th, 2022  
@kvphoto Thanks for the recommendation. I don’t have it and will look into it. I love the challenge of the BIF, but also find them so frustrating to capture!
April 26th, 2022  
Stunning shot
April 26th, 2022  
Such beautiful markings that you might not notice as one flies by. Like the outstretched wings, too.
April 27th, 2022  
Well catch. Beautiful shot.
April 27th, 2022  
Great capture
April 27th, 2022  
magnificent shot, Taffy!
April 27th, 2022  
Beautiful.
April 27th, 2022  
What a wonderful catch and I love the way his wings seem to be transparent....
April 28th, 2022  
This photo is on Top 20 Chart. Congratulations!
