Morning Bird Pic

[sleigh]

MBP: Okay, back from the busy weekend (which was lots of fun as well)... Let's look at birds in motion. The camera I'm using (a Nikon L820) at the fully extended telephoto length that I need to use to get close pictures, doesn't give me a fast enough shutter speed to 'freeze' motion, so the birds I happen to catch in flight are blurred to one degree or another. Still, I rather like the abstract effect that gives them. So for the next three or four days, I'll give you a few examples that from just the other day.

Here's the first: two birds fluttering their wings for stability while perched on the feeder.

It's like they're playing ring-around-the-birdseed.
