Took this phot with a Canon 7D and a Canon 600mm Lens which yields 600mm X 1.6 (crop factor) = 960 mm. This male Eastern Bluebird (a juvenile I think) has a landing perch from which he lands and eats. I had the camera set up 100′ from the perch and then used manual focus for a spot 10′ in front of the perch. That is a total of 110′. I then wait for the bird and take 8 quick photos when he closes in on that 110′ spot.
Still a little out of focus and my speed was a little too slow (1/1000th sec):
