Description

Every once in awhile I get a real action shot involving a bird around my back deck. Some shots have just enough detail to make them fun to look at. Here a Blue Jay, who had been in the bowl of seed, takes off leaving a spray of seeds behind him. Thanks for stopping by. Have a great Saturday wherever you are! Bill:) A ZOOM allows you to see the birds head just beyond the beating wings.

"We have lift off." Great action pic. Did you pre-set the ISO at 400?

LOL, great shot!! They do make a mess at times, don't they! At least he didn't upset the whole bowl, like the squirrels can do! Great action, shot, Bill, love the spray of seed and wing blur!
