Maybe it was my last chance this evening to spend time with the camera around the nest box of the House Wrens. The parents kept feeding the little wrens. They are quite large already and it seems the calls for more food get louder every day. This is my most spectacular shot from today. Stuffing the insects and spiders into the throat of the juveniles takes only a second or less and not every click is a hit.
This little guy found a way to keep its siblings out of the way by leaning out of the entrance as far as possible and plugging the hole with its butt. It must have known that something big is coming...

This ‘Big Ass Spider’ was gone as quick as any smaller prey before. Look at the size of the spider in comparison to the bird’s size. This is about the same as you eating a whole chicken at once… 😆
