I was able to get some shots of the Killdeer in flight the other day, both with wings up and wings down.

The sun had just peeked over the hill shining gently on the shallow pond illuminating the Killdeer. This is one of those shots that really looks best enlarged.

My skill and the skill of my auto-focus usually fail when it comes to Killdeer, especially when they are close. They just are too darn fast! But sometimes I get lucky and this was one of those lucky shots.

I take these shots all of the time, but most are not as sharp as I would like, but I keep trying. Once in a while I am on the mark. A very minor crop.
