3 - "Solid" 

Title: “Sibling Rivalry” / "Low Blow"

Birds: Juvenile Blue Tits (I believe they are called Chickadees in America)
Location: UK

Hand held, natural light only. These small birds are extremely quick (wing blur even at 1/2500sec shutter speed) and my patience was rewarded when I managed to capture this "Low Blow" AND get both heads in focus. The background is shaded dark foliage.

I also consider this a lucky photo as it was not only chosen out of an amazing lineup for the Fstoppers Telephoto critique but was used to front the video! Thanks guys!

Canon EOS 7D Mark II; Canon EF 100-400mm L IS II
1/2500 sec. f/5 271 mm
