    Default The crow, the oblivious birders, and the unlucky mole

    I'll let the images speak for themselves ...

    The crow approaches ...



    It is getting closer ...



    Even closer, what does it see???



    Hmm, could it be nesting material?



    Or a newly hatched bird (naaa, too early ...)



    Wait a minute ... them are legs, right?



    100% crop ....



    I guess it is supper ... looks me like a mole bit the dust ..

    Very well captured Matt. Love this action sequence, especially with all the oblivious people missing it.
    Reality is a nice place to visit, but I wouldn't want to live there!
