Siskins (Carduelis spinus) around the feeder wage war even if there is plenty of space for each of them. They fly together and feed together in herds.
Let that be the first of a small series...

hi Michael

I think this is a superb shot, even with flash. The action freeze is well done and I really like the element of 3 birds on the left side showing the feeder in stark contrast to the BG blur color. The bird in stationary position at the right is a bonus feature.

I can see that 1/500 is still unable to freeze the wings but it might as well, to show the motion blur of the wings very nicely :)

Great work, IMO.

tfs, bill
