Robin with mealworm

Llanelli, Wales

This shot was taken on the 2nd day of the year. The live mealworms are kept in bran to feed themselves on. If you look closely, you can see grains of bran dropping from the worm.

Canon EOS 20D ,Canon EF 400mm f/5.6L USM
1/400s f/5.6 at 400.0mm iso400 full exif

my favorite. excellent suspension of the crumbs/dust off the worm and wonderful motion blur in the flapping wings

Hard choice between this and the train - but this one is so delicate, it is my pick.

My favorite. Love the action catch. Did you promise him an extra mealy if he posed?

I really like the movement in this picture. My favorite, although I like the lake and the airport too.
