Excellent shots Pete. I imagine they weren't easy, especially the male in flight.

Hi Pete
The female looks more like a Four-spotted Chaser to me but it might be my new varifocals  |

Brilliant shots! Could you tell us at what speed you took the inflight shot? Perfectly frozen!

I found taking pics of birds coming to or leaving a peanut silo worked well at 1,250 second but I was using a cheaper Nikon lens 55-200mm VR, which was good for some things as it was compatible with the movement when using the central area for metering and focus. I sold that to help pay for my macro lens which has far more uses for my purposes, but I do miss that. | | |
