The Day After Thanksgiving

These are images of bread in our bird feeders the day after Thanksgiving.  
The bread is my wife's made with all natural ingredients so there are no 
preservatives or colors that could be bad for our feathered friends.
Some people consider sparrows and starlings to be nuisance birds, but we find them fun to watch.
The interaction between the Starlings who tried to be in charge and 
the Sparrows who were determined to get their share...
...provided for a show of acrobatic accompanied by a noisy chorus.
The sun was just right...
...to get some great shots of fluttering wings...
...with my Canon 7D camera and Canon EF 70-300 mm lens IS USM.
Focal length 300 mm, Exposure 1/3200 sec at f/5.6 and ISO 6400.
