Nature photographer Geoff Moon captured this spectacular sequence of a silvereye in flight as it approached a bird table. Pictures were taken at 1/250th of a second assisted by an electronic flashlight at 1/10,000 of a second. The camera was triggered as the bird left its perch three metres away. It took many shots to capture the bird mid-frame.
