### Description

I’ve been fortunate lately, more by luck than design, to get birds at eye level with a nice background. I also like the perch and singing pose. Pretty large crop, but I think the detail held up okay.

### Specific Feedback

Any thoughts appreciated.

### Technical Details

Canon R5; 100-500 with 1.4 TC at 700 mm; 1/1000 at f10; ISO 1600.

Beautiful job on this image, Allen. Great perch and a fine singing pose with very nice light.

Hi Allen, really nice catch of this warbler - love the singing pose and distant BG. Nice exposure too.

Very nice Allen. I was trying to get some of these this morning at our local ponds. Not very cooperative. Great to get this guy out in the open. I like the colors and the BG is really nice
