Thistle Eater
Our winter birds can't just survive on humans filling bird feeders. What would they do if we weren't here? Canon Mark II, Canon 300L f/2.8, ISO 800 f/6.3 @ 1/320th.

Nice catch and beautiful composition. I have lots of thistles but haven’t seen any birds eating them.

Nice capture; I very much like the inclusion of the thistle and the sense of motion conveyed by the wings.
