Hello @taliakerch your going to make me blush but thank you ;)
I was kind of screwing around with settings on these images but I lifted a snapshot off the setting info for you. Was using higher shutter speeds than normal and as a result a higher ISO than normaly do
Shutter speed is the key for freezing action if your still getting motion blur try a faster one I was running 1/3200 of a sec this day and that is fast enough to freeze hummingbird wings(was imaging those just prior to the Ravens
If I was setting for Ravens I'd proably set the shutter @ around 1/1500 and drop the ISO to 400-800 depending on how bright the day is.
Also it will depend on the rig you are using as well, some don't do as well with high ISO settings.
