Sand Martin (juv)
Sand Martin / riparia riparia. Bawdsey, Suffolk. 29/06/21.
I'm sure my image will get a Marmite response ... love it, hate it ... an acquired taste!
I deliberately tried to capture a sense of motion in this feeding shot, the blurred rush of an incoming parent bird and the expectant wing quivering of the juvenile about to be fed. I like it because it captures and tells the story of a moment between parent and youngster. I just wish I hadn't clipped the wings of the juvenile though!!!
BEST VIEWED LARGE.
