Nice Catch, Sweetie!

Description

I shot this through our window this summer. The female Eastern Bluebird could catch food for the babies so much better than the male. She was amazing. Shot with Canon 7D Mark II, Canon 300 mm L lens on tripod and gimbal head. Settings f6.7, 1/750, ISO 160.

Thank you, Rudi. Yes, they would wait in the top of the tree for the prey to die, and then go to the nest box and feed their young, giving me an opportunity to capture them with their catch. <>< #11736253
