Birds in Motion
by Jerry Curtis

I nearly froze my fingers trying to capture the constant motion of the birds at our backyard feeder today. There was constant movement as the birds lined up and jockeyed for position. There was a strong north east wind also, which had the feeders swinging like children's swings at a playground.

Jerry, great capture...looks a bit like a feeding frenzy.

Jerry, I really like the winter, woodland setting here...and all the activity that you captured around the bird feeder. I like your perspective on this scene too...and I'm sure that the sparrows and juncos really appreciate your generosity. Nice capture. MFC

I like the sharpness of the trees contrasting with the birds in motion. Helen
