Sometimes it's better to be lucky than good. When sahuaros bloom, the cactus flowers attract flying insects and probably birds that eat those flying insects. I spotted this aptly name cactus wren on top of a tall sahuaro and zoomed in on the bird, framed the shot and held the shutter button down taking 4 shots at 10fps.
When I looked at the shots in post, I cropped in on the bird and noticed that it had it's eye on a bug that flew into the frame and the bird was following the bug's flight. I had no idea that was happening until I looked at the shots in post. The best shot in my opinion was the first. It was a stroke of luck that bug flew into the frame and nothing that was planned or anticipated - just random luck.
