I walk up to them very very slowly and quietly, plant my monopod, focus (it's a manual focus lens), set the exposure, and if they're still there, shoot a bunch of frames. If they still haven't moved, I take a step closer and repeat. I keep doing that until they fly away. Usually they fly away before I even get one frame, but sometimes I get surprisingly lucky. ;-) > You present that photo and then you quote Cartier-Bresson on sharpness? ; ) What can I say?
