‘Really?? But I was here first!’

I was enjoying watching the sparrows vie for seeds in my neighbor’s yard. I need to practice more with that kind of action shot because most of the good ones didn’t turn out (with only one bird in focus).

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by Pbase are decidedly unsharp.

Action shots are tough, that's for sure. You did great with this one. Love their conversation. V

It is always fun to watch the birds interacting at the feeders. You caught a great confrontation here. V

Nice interaction shot Helen. She seems to be begging.

It's a fine photo showing the behaviour and your caption is spot on.
