I managed to catch this European Roller in flight near El Hondo. Like most birds tricky to catch in flight. Such stunning birds. It appears to have been a good breeding season for them there.

Mark Simmonds · 0 · 6m ago Thank you Marina - I have been trying to get a good flight shot but always failed. Nice to get a good shot at last👍🏽👍🏽
Tack sharp brilliance!
Thank you Tara. Normally I get them flying away and out of focus. This one came out great for a change👍🏽👍🏽
We all get lots of blurry photos, empty branches and half a bird flying out of shots. Always. 🐦🪵📷 You have lots of great sharp flying shots in your gallery. So good.
That is true Tara. Been practicing this year and starting to get some decent shots. Still a lot of luck involved 👍🏽👍🏽
