Stunning pose. I suggest this image is all about the bird, to much of anything else is a distraction. Thanks for posting.
Wonderful capture, Andrew! I really like the pose and how she is engaging with her nest. Great story here. Perfect focus, background bokeh and sharpness from tail to beak.
I agree with Steven that cropping in to remove much of the negative space, really makes more of an impact.
Congrats on a great capture!
Excellent pose, detail, head turn, and perch. The closer crop works a lot better for me.
Thanks for the crop. Much better.
Excellent detail in the Bluebird, Andrew. I love the pose. This composition works for me.
Andrew: excellent pose. The cropped version really makes the bird pop as the subject. Richard
