Really can't decide if I like this picture or not - at least it's different. Didn't have much of a chance to do anything different. Late evening shot. CC welcome.

I like it a lot David !!! Great action You might want to select the eye an work on it to make it even sharper !!

Sure wish part of the feeder was not interfering with the tail. Would have been great isolating and rotating the bird !!!

Nice action and blur effect !

A bit too much flash for my taste.

Awesome action in this image and I echo Alfred's comments. Thanks for sharing David.

I like the action here David,
Did you spice up the bird food? Or put some spirits in the drinking water???:eek::D:p:) This fellow looks pretty tipsy to me...:eek::D Great shot, I do like that bluring of the wings...:)

Repost with recommended eye sharpening. I agree, it looks better - thanks again for the recommendation.

The repost looks even better. Great action image.....complete with the bird going in one direction and the seed going in another. Pretty cool!!!!
