Nice shots. I know what you mean, I was trying to shoot them just yesterday. I did not have the patience for the inflight fellas but managed to get several sitting on a tree. Still need to go thru the photos and see if I got anything of value.I went out today with the R5 and 100-500mm and as usual saw nothing but on the way back some Barnswallows swooped around for a couple of minutes. Photographing these is an Olympic athletics event rather than photography. Two shots of juveniles followed by a burst on an older bird stitched together.

Nice shot Lance.Blue Flycatcher, taken on our photo workshop in the Mara North Conservancy, KenyaView attachment 205272
Looks good to me. It's nice just to see the variety of birds from where folks live. Birds some of us may never get to see!After the orgy of great photos/colors in the last pages of the forum I was hesitate to post mine from today. On other hand it's what it is - just the regular commons on the regular background... after the regular walk in the nearby park.

Thank you!Nice shots Cog.
It took me a moment to recognize the mewling call of a Green-tailed Towhee. After a bit one popped up, a juvenile, followed shortly by what was probably a sibling.
