Yeah, they usually fly away when I get close.

I literally took four footsteps forward from where I got the shot and he took off. Glad I stopped where I did!

This is how I approach pretty much all subjects when I do not know how they react. I will rattle of 10-12 shots, take a few steps closer, rattle off some more, get closer, shoot some more, etc. Probably why I take a thousand images every time I go out...
