Crumbs please! by judithg

Crumbs please!

I went with @jannaellen to Granchester Tea Gardens this morning and snapped this little female chaffinch who was very bold and stealing crumbs from the plates (still in use!) of the tea-taking public. She doesn't compare in splendour to some of the amazing birds seen on 365 (or even her pink husband) but she sat still for me and, with barky dog in one hand, I was delighted to catch her!
A lovely capture,the birds get so tame at these tea rooms

Absolutely fabulous capture! I love the sharpness and the greedy look on her face ;). You obviously know how to handle your camera :)! Thanx again for the wonderful morning! Hope you were successful with all your chores!

@jannaellen And thanks for the tea and cake - tomorrow I'll send you a few photos of you taking photos ;0) - the chores turned very taxing in the end so it was good to have a nice half to the day!! How were the talks?

I love this Judith, the dark background makes the bird stand out, and the framing just sets it off nicely.
