A great close-up this Ann.

I always find it difficult to get them properly in the frame and focused when they're right at my feet.

hi ann.super capture love those feet and this bird.tfs.all the best margaret.my carrion crow image the buzzard was round a bend and could not see the crows and not road kill as there are no roads nearby.i saw two crows in the scrub they flew into the tree one had i think a vole the other one was waiting for leftovers.it may have just been a dead vole they found but i watched them in the tree and the crow skinned it and there was blood and it looked pretty fresh so i would say it had been hunted or had died very recently to them finding it!!!would have been amazing if that buzzard had flew round then i would have been able to watch that moment a hungry buzzard and crow i think i know who would have won that one.
