Well, at least you had your camera to hand. One flies low over my house regularly but I never have my camera to hand. I dash to get it and rush to the front, side or back of the house depending where I think he'll be now; but he's always altered his flight path and is disappearing into the distance. Ha, ha, does it to annoy me, I think.

We were dog walking in the fields by a river, and my hubby said he had seen the herons there, so I took the camera, was trying to sneak up on the Buzzard, and I got what would have been a fabulous shot of that flying, then the lens was hunting and I missed some brilliant flying heron shots, but eventually got a few like this as the heron went back overhead! I really want the 70-200mm f2.8 L III or even II lens, which is supposed to be really good for wildlife, and I love my 18-55 f2.8 L lens, it is superb and makes the other one look pretty awful performance wise, I wonder if it would have a long enough focal length, compared to my 70-300 none L lens. Also I might have to go on a weight lifting course to carry it round!
I have been trying to get good flying shots that were in focus for years!
