That's what happens when you're a teen !
Not a kid anymore, yet not quite an adult.

Good stuff, I saw the shutter speed first then the aperture and thought how is that possible... then I noticed the 1600 iso.

With moving targets, I try to use zone focusing as much as possible. by popping down the aperture, we increase the zone of acceptable focus. Increasing the ISO was not something we could do using film, but by increasing ISO we can also drop shutter speed, and that allows stop action.
All around a valuable technique for those moments!

Not yet in full adult plumage. Probably a 4-year old bird.
