    A tiny feeder filled with suet provided lots of flight images as the birds fought for position.

    Great image, love the wing position, one forward and one backwards, super detail and light, the colours in the birds again are superb. I would be happy with two sparrows never mind these crackers. Well done Alan.

    Alan:

    Beautifully captured, with wonderful comp, curved lines of birds wings, body position working along the diagonal of the frame, top notch.

    Was this one manually triggered ?

    Congrats

    Thanks Randy, yes this was triggered manually using the technique that I share in my ebook " The Photographers Guide To Attracting Birds"
