Richie, I agree with you that these birds are very fast. So they're very hard to capture. Apparently (by watching wonderful bird images) you're not dealing with this problem. I suppose however that your perseverance and patience earn a lot of credits too!
If you think you can't accept something, try to change it. But if this doesn't work, don't be frustrated, but give it later another try. The one who perseveres wins!
