Amazing set Chris! You are right, it is difficult to capture such a great shot, which you have taken in photos 3 & 4. But you have captured it very nicely!

Great shooting Chris - I appreciate how difficult the Murmurations are to capture, I've never managed a decent shot yet

Great White Egret in flight, caught by surprise whilst walking and carrying a 150 - 450 plus a monopod, shot one handed with a Sigma 100 - 300.
I think the same bird a short while later catching its evening meal, this time with the 150 - 450 @ 450mm on a monopod
Finally the reason for the trip, the starling Mumuration, quite difficult to capture the event in one frame or even 2, both with the Sigma 100 - 300 @ 100mm
