this shot reminds me of someone in my home town... this has sooo much meaning to it for me..... i wonder if the birds are her only friends... and she religiously feeds them every day....great shot

I love the B&W, the DOF, the frozen-in-motion quality of the birds, everything. God bless bird ladies everywhere :)

Thank you for all your kind comments. Just for a bit of background information this photo was taken in Regent's Park in central London, about half a mile north of Oxford Street. I hadn't been to the park for a long time but it appears that this lady is a regular vistor. As Cheryl suggested - the birds do seem to know that it is feeding time when she arrives!

I am in total agreement with everyone else - fabulous shot.
