Field Notes

Notes:

Most of this picture is blurry, except the bird's head. As it was scratching in the leaves, everything on the bird moved, except his head stayed in the exact spot, like a falcon does in flight.

Thanks Daniel. That's not what I was trying for, but thought it was interesting.

Love the motion blurriness in the photo. Shows the bird doing something.
