BIRD IN FLIGHT ONLY -- share your BIF photos here

I haven't been in my preferred spot for Tropic birds for few Years. Finally... And I found the birds on the background of the dark/under shade cliffs more interesting? Not sure I selected the best out of ~700 . Note the last two: subadults Red-tailed with some black spots on the back - all three species of Tropic Birds have that spots when juveniles!

I really like your series. Well done, ISv.
Thanks Click! I'm still in process of viewing what I have done last Sunday and here you have few more (and I promise not to bother with more;):censored:).
I still prefer the photos on the dark background but it was rare occasion and at that point they never looked at me (not because at the other backgrounds they really cared of my presence on the cliff:D).

Another beautiful series, ISv. I like very much the point of view coming from a place situated in altitude.

I agree with you, I also prefer the dark background.

Keep posting!
"Keep posting!"
It's the same altitude! Birds are flying at different altitudes. Anyway: posting one and the same from the same day is boring - especially for the viewers! For me it was a lot a fun and what actually surprised me was ## of keepers with the 200-500 attached (do I getting better :ROFLMAO: or it just happen to be like that?).

Just lovely. And - for sure - I'm not bored.

I really love those white birds with the blue sea+highlights bg :love:

Thanks Click and Maximilian! I'm planning to go there after few weeks again: I didn't complete my task that day. After 3-4 weeks I may have a chance to take a photo of baby Tropic Bird. They are pretty when the real feathers (with the black barring) start appearing.
