Red Kite Trail

Yesterday was a sunny day and I thought I would take a run through the Red Kite Trail. These were talen with 7D and 50-500. These birds are not easy to shoot as they are ducking and diving and then glide for a short period. I know the 500 likes plenty of light but at times I found it slow in focusing resulting in missed shots. Your C & C is more than welcome and any advice would be most appreciated. It is 12 months since I was last on the Red Kite Trail.
Cheers
Bob

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"
