Re: Nightjar photo
Is the lens IS and is it f2f.8 or 2? If not - ss200 or greater, iso auto limited to 1600, and f8 and play around from there. That's what I would start off with.
Obviously high frame rate,and continuous focus. Maybe try spot meeting, and central focus point.Canon Eos 70D, Tamron 28-300mm XR Di VC, Yongnuo YN565EX + YN568EX, Panasonic FZ200 -

Not an expert but Thndr_strck's comment makes sense.
