How much do those things move? Impressive to get seven shots off att different focus lenghts for the stack.

thanks for commenting

they do sit still for quite long periods, waiting motionless for prey to get close. the problem is getting them to sit in a good position in the "studio" set:D they do like to fly!
trouble is they do move their head around quite a lot looking at anything in the room that moves [ especially the tv pictures ]
