This was project I started when I left UKNPN - high speed birds in flight. I'm still working on it. Actually I just set up two feeders, that will (hopefully) generate enough traffic this winter..
Marko recon you have caught the bird beautifully but it does look a bit dark on my gear, birds in flight shots must be a real challenge for you so good luck with that I would be well pleased with this.

Marco what was your shutter speed ect for this shot?
Looks a bit too dark on mine too.
Cracking detail and patience has been rewarded with a very good shot.
Only nit from me is that it could do with a bit more space all round, just a bit too big in the frame for me.

Nits mentioned regarding darkness and space, but a very dynamic pose caught that I too would be well happy with!

I think you need to up the power on the flash or move it a bit closer to the flight line as the bird looks slightly underexposed.
Were you using some sort of trigger beam or getting lots of practise guessing timing?
