Swift

So... Whilst waiting for the American golden plover to come closer, which it didn't, I rattled off several hundred swift in flight shots... The great majority of these were blurry blobs in flight shots or wing tip just poking into the frame shots, both of which were definitely not aesthetically pleasing. After wasting a considerable amount of time trying to achieve an impossible goal for old fat people, I took the converter off, this improved things immensely, I could now, at least, track a bird. As the day wore on and the wind increased, they came much closer to the ground and I actually got a frame I liked.

(Removing your converter increases field of view and does NOT reduce your BMI... It is recommended that eating a heathy, mixed diet, preferably vegan, and getting plenty of exercise will address your sofa slug with a camera syndrome).
