At RSPB Old Moor today and was lucky to catch the male reed bunting with a beak full of dragonflies. Obviously some hungry mouths to feed.

Excellent shot Ant. Would grace the front cover of a magazine.Comment

Thanks everyone for comments. No real editing needed just a bit of cropping to change position of bird in frame. Background due to distant foliage which is well OOF.
A right time, right pale shot.Canon 5D3, 7D2, 60D, Canon 70-200L f2.8 IS II, Canon 300 f4L IS, Canon 16-35 f4 L, Canon 24-105mm f/4L IS USM, Canon 1.4 MkIII extender, Sigma AF 10-20mm f/3.5 EX DC HSM, Sigma 150-600 Contemporary, Tamron SP AF 70-300 F/4-5.6 Di VC USD, Canon EF-S 18-55mm 1:3.5-5.6 IS

I have looked at this image again and I have to agree with Brian.
A super sharp image of the Reed Bunting and the extra interest with the dragon fly, coupled with a super creamy blurred background exudes quality. Worthy of a magazine cover.

You're starting to make me blush now Colin. Sometimes an image is just right and think this works well.Originally posted by colin C View PostI have looked at this image again and I have to agree with Brian.

By the way I've looked at the body count and think I can see at least 3 dragonfly bodies.Canon 5D3, 7D2, 60D, Canon 70-200L f2.8 IS II, Canon 300 f4L IS, Canon 16-35 f4 L, Canon 24-105mm f/4L IS USM, Canon 1.4 MkIII extender, Sigma AF 10-20mm f/3.5 EX DC HSM, Sigma 150-600 Contemporary, Tamron SP AF 70-300 F/4-5.6 Di VC USD, Canon EF-S 18-55mm 1:3.5-5.6 IS
