Sometimes the situation indicates motion even if there is no blur. This crow seems to have the same doubts I have about where things are going.

A bit of motion in the subject and background can show drama, and possible tell a story (here the bird is shaking water off its wings).

When you stop motion with high shutter speeds and follow your subject (twist you waist not your feet), the background blurs showing motion but our subject will be focus.

This week I am focusing on motion. High shutter speeds stop motion, lower speeds show motion blur.

As birds go the heron family make for great stalkers. Here a great blue heron is searching for fish along the shoreline.

Like other birds, geese are very protective of their young. Quite a sight when you see a family out for a swim.
