A Black Skimmer preens on the beach at Cape May Point. The width of the bill is amazing and the fact that they can use it so precisely is even more amazing

Patrouille Suisse flying their routine at the RAF Cosford Airshow,to perfection, lucky to catch a good passing / crossover shot .. Great to see these Northrop F-5E Tiger II still flying. I believe they are in their last year 2023.

Female ruby-throated hummingbird refueling at bee balm in my garden. It is fascinating to watch these little birds as they hover and dart in any direction as they get lined up with the nectar source. The speed and precision in which they accomplish this feat is truly amazing. Backyard bird.

It took the working team less than the one hour which I needed to take the sunset photo, to get the wings off the ground to fix it at the top.
That's precision!
It was very interesting to watch.
An Anna's Hummingbird feeding on a wild radish flower. If you look closely, you can see the pollen on the tip of its beak. It's easy to see how these little birds help pollinate plants. Check out its tiny little talons tucked away underneath too.
A shot of a Great Blue Heron pulling a fish from the water at the fork of the Thames river here in London Ontario. I was surprised to see this fellow in such a busy place but he was intent on filling his stomach with fish and paid little attention to me or anyone else enjoying the park that day.
This young male juvenile had been actively flying around lakes but appeared unable or willing to fish but came across a Dragonfly nymph for split minute before flying off again.
Precision & Planning - A couple good friends and myself spotted this female Peregrine Falcon of a pair while hiking the Northern California Coast. Compared to the male, she has more distinctive rufous coloration and is significantly larger (as is this case in this species and many other falcons/raptors). After we determined that we weren't able to get portraits where she was sitting, we carefully curved around and waited at her predicted flight path - with the goal of capturing her flying towards us. She took off like a rocket towards us through the dunes and I was very happy to capture this shot which conveys a sense of habitat as well as speed. It certainly takes a lot of precision and planning to photograph such a precise and speedy bird in flight!

We miss a lot with the naked eye when wildlife does even routine things. I love the grace and elegance of this goose making a tip-toe landing in the golden tones of an early morning sun.
I’m not sure what this lady was doing, but she was doing it very slowly and very precisely (at first I thought she was on her phone but when I zoomed in it appeared not).
A heart-stopping moment as two Red Arrows jets sweep past each other in opposite directions, wingtips seemingly inches apart. Precision, trust, and split-second timing make this manoeuvre possible — a striking example of the skill and daring that define Britain’s world-famous aerobatic team
