I shot this image this weekend in the West Coast National Park of South Africa of this visiting European Bee-eater. I wish I could have captured a bit more eye, but I am happy with the result of the fast moving bird.

Good job on this flight shot. I might consider toning down the mid tones a bit.

I like the effect of your panning here. Reminds me of "warp speed". I think some additional sharpening might be even better.
