Flight of the Godwits

One of my little goals has been to learn how to set my mirrorless camera to catch birds in flight. I normally just have my camera set on single-spot focus, but today I tinkered with continuous focus. Really happy how this turned out, as they're not slow birds. March is the time of year when the godwits take off for their long migratory flight to Alaska, where they feed and breed before returning to New Zealand in September and October. Guess they were having a practice run
Wow this is great. I can't even get an in focus, not blurry shot of ants walking yet, ha ha, but I will get there!!

VERY nice. I imagine that needed to be continuous focus AND a pretty high shutter speed to get this one, with so many frozen in flight. Well done.
