Bird of Prey

GOTCHA!!...ya thought it was gonna be like an African Eagle or something huh!!?? Maybe next time. Ok...so...its blurry..its fuzzy..its all things not nice. I wish i was better prepared for this moment..but i'm new!. Its been sharpened a little..i've even used spot healing brush to remove wires runnin all over the place, but im still also new to using programs... but i like the image,a tleast the idea..hopefully your advice will have me better ready for it next time? This pigeon aint gonna stop...its either very hungry..or coming in for a VERY VERY bad landing.

How do i improve movement shot with getting that winged blur but stil stay sharp without a tripod?????

ALL C+C welcome!!!!

What focus option did you use? Im guessing S? Flick the dial round to C, Continuous Focus and keep the centre focus point fixed on the birds head. I think you could possibly up the shutter speed a little too and still achieve the movement in the wings.
