Snow Flurry

I took this 'mid air' shot last week so I can't tag it for the theme. But I haven't taken a single photo today and thought I would use this as a stand in. This little guy was creating quite a flurry of snow on take off.

This is fantastic, Peggy! Is that a little red berry in his beak? What a big flurry of snow for such a little bird. Great capture.

[Terry]

Peggy ,,, nice shot girl. Great action capture and great detail

[Barb Smith]

Awesome capture, Peggy! Action, berry and all.

[Joe Hagarty]

Beautiful Peggy - getting that touch of red warmed up the picture - Great work.

[Peggy Sirk]

@girlie Thanks, Robin! I think it's either a dried cranberry or a nut that he has in his beak. I spread some winter mix bird food on top of the wall to attract some subjects to photograph.
Did you watch the Hewitt/Nalbandian match today? Hate that Leyton is out in the early rounds...I'm sure Australian fans were disappointed. But, he played hard and well.

[Jennifer Ashburn]

what an amazing shot!

[Peggy Sirk]

@sarasdadandmom @barbsmith @joetheartist Thanks, Terry, Barb and Joe! Action shots are a new genre for me....actually, it was a lucky capture and I'm glad it turned out. :)

[Graham Harcombe]

The more I stared at this shot, the more I got out of it. Love the red in his beak and the snow flurry.

[Joe Ciras]

[Pat Pabst]

Awesome action capture! What kind of bird is it?

[Lee Nodes]

@lenslooker Thanks, Pat! I honestly don't know what kind of bird it is...that was the first time I've seen him around the yard.

[Cindy Langford]

[Kim Shaw Ball]

Wow! Amazing shot. I think I say that about every photo you take. I really love everything you do!

[Catherine]

Wow, you captured so much action in this shot, Peggy! Love it

[Judith Greenwood]

That's amazing - I live the snow spraying out - so much snow you've still got tho...

[Constance Brinkley]

Ha, quite an active bird. Fun capture Peggy.

[Helene]
