Nice environmental image. Good color and detail on the bird. Too bad about the diagonal branch crossing the plumage. Keep trying and you’ll get one in the open.

A nice composition for this, David, though I’d probably take a touch off the top, but that’s just me-I usually find tall narrow images too tall.The branches deserve to stay there in this image-they add a lot. Great pose from the Oriole and excellent detail. Well done.
