Excellent job getting the focus where it needs to be, Bill. The leaves don’t bother me a bit.

Sandy: I don’t think so. He just was stretching. He had a normal grip on the branch most of the time.

Hi Bill, another fine catch of this beauty. Lighting on the bird looks good to me with enough lighting on the eye to even make out the pupil. We have these in my neighborhood and they are always a thrill to see. Glad you got a special opportunity with this one.
