( Key, "Learning to Fly", by either Pink Floyd OR The Foo Fighters [depending on your generation]). Today while trying out yet a different configuration on my camera (Shutter Priority Mode) I was swarmed by masses of juvenile House Sparrows that have just left the nest and are learning to fly. This little fellow appeared to be having trouble getting his wings to work. Notice that he is using his left leg to raise his left wing up in the air to try to get airborn. ![[Linked Image]](http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a327/Thornius/LearningtoFly.jpg)

I'd say Shutter Priority Mode makes a great picture.

Actually I'm told that Aperture Priority Mode shooting with an ISO of 800 or higher and a fast shutter speed is better, but I'm not sur ehow to even set that up!
