Female Blackbird

After a few failed attempts I managed to keeps till enough to not startle the bird away.

But boy do they eat those berries fast! A blink of the eye and she had swallowed another one so nailing the moment she had the berry in her beak was tough.

Shooting at f2.8 as well on an FF camera so the DoF was razor thin adding to the challenge
