 Apart from the "Depending on Camera/Lens rig" issue, I found that Lighting, such as in a "Contre Jour" situation, the auto /focus / metering  can go bonkers, also, I am convinced that with D1 / D1x / SlrN / D3S / D3x when Focus selector is set to "C " , then before each time the Shutter fires, the Camera re-focuses..

My knowledge of Bird-Photography extends to a well prepared chicken being tasty...However , I can see a scenario of a rather small object "embedded" as it were in a sea of light , exposed by said light from every angle, except the right one ( Lens to Object ) ..which would be taxing for any camera system .

Would it be possible to use Man. Focus instead ?...a bit of practice goes a long way..

....and when you have become Proficient , You could apply for a job as a " Focus Puller "...I hear a Thrifty Gent can earn Big Bucks by pulling things on TV..
