That's an adorable shot. Beware though. We've had raccoons destroy our feeders.

I know we have raccoons are our place, but we never see them during the day. This one must have really been hungry to try this! Great capture! :)

Amazing! Shutter speed only 1/10 sec without flash. You must have captured him at the transition of movement from swinging up to down. Steady grip too!

Thanks for all your comments.

I didn't realize that I was at 1/10 sec. I had to act fast. I grabbed my camera... threw it in Program Mode and began shooting. I didn't have time... or even thought about settings. Now I know why all but this one were blurred! But it only takes one. My error shows you that I'm far from a pro!
