Perfect timing, Keith. How long did you wait for this to happen? ;-)

Not long actually Amelia. This particular bird was landing on the feeder, pulling out 2 peanuts and dropping them and taking away a 3rd peanut to eat.......................and repeating that cycle frequently. Very odd. Also I shot at a high frame rate in order to get the one frame I wanted. Glad you like it.

The perfect moment. They're a prodigal lot birds. My goldfinches hurl sunflower hearts out of the feeders in all directions before picking one to eat.

I have a regular gang of goldfinches visiting my feeders..............they get better fed than I do..!! Unfortunately I have to visit friends to see the nuthatch. Glad you like it Jean.

Haha! What a capture! He does look a little bit panicky about dropping it. Great shot, Keith/
