Took this from the car window. Three shot burst. Had a 1.4 teleconverter on the 400mm lens. Never have got good pictures of moving targets with the teleconverter attached. It focuses really slow. Took the last picture of the same bird a little further down the road.

Man, you got some good ones there. I got one of them high dollar cameras worldtalker and I don't come nowhere close. Apparently there's a little skill and operator intelligence involved too.

Loved the 35mm film and it took me forever to go over to that digital. When it first come out I thought I could see all the little squares. It's way more better now. Fuji film was always the best for color I thought and I really liked shooting in B&W. Nikon's a great camera, but I like my Canon.

I think you did good. I have a tele and even though setting to infinity at distance with manual focus have never gotten a good moving shot at anything.
