Eleanor,

that's some great wing symmetry there, and the magic vanishing BG is cool as well.
These guys are really fast, eh?!
4 down, 2 to go.

Yes, the mouse was put out for the bird and they come so amazingly fast that I consider myself lucky if I get a shot or two. Just when I think I could be able to get something the bird changes course and that is it.

Super ! The f7.1 did well here to get the full length of the bird (and mouse)sharp.
Wondering if you used the AI servo mode with the IS also on ?? I'm having some difficulties with these types of shots .
