[QUOTE="hark, post: 736630, member: 13196"] This isn't a good photo, but I'm posting it because it was a complete surprise. I framed up the image, and a split second before I pressed the shutter, the sparrow that was sitting there flew off.

The thing is I couldn't even see the finch since the sparrow completely blocked it. I was left looking at the image going [I]what just happened here?[/I] :eek: I'm kind of surprised with the ISO.
