The good news is that you held focus. Great shots.

Easy problem to handle, next time shoot (and I don't mean with a camera) the jogger.

Outstanding captures. #3 is brilliant. :super

:rofl I reckon the bird took issue with you not asking for a release and so deliberately flew in front of the runner! Great shots :thumb What kind of bird is that?

Wow! Some of the best kestrel bifs I have seen. I bet you could clone out that pesky jogger. :wink

The first one is amazing that the focus didn't switch to the jogger - great detail. I'd go with Stephen's idea of cloning out the jogger.

Thanks Ric! I probably would not have gotten the bif if he not spooked the kestrel.

Thanks Mike! The runner spooked the bird, and I got a few bifs! It's a female American Kestrel.

Thanks Stephen! I have a few others so no need to clone out the jogger.
