House Finch Male

This is my first post in a few days, I’ve been busy organizing my images…big job.

I shot this in RAW format, which I will be doing going forward. This is a bit branch busy but I figure that’s were they live. lol

Canon T2i
EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS USM

1/200th, f/10, ISO 800, 400mm

Your suggestions or comments are appreciated!

Very sharp, Jim. I like the position of the finch in the frame. What’s that dark wavy band across the top-a branch? It almost looks like water. The full size image is showing quite a bit of noise-you might want to look at running some noise reduction on it.

Superb detail, color, and light. Yes, I wish more of us would be accepting of real avian environments and not so picky about the number of branches in an image. That’s why Adobe developed cloning. Not having it would be a lot less work for some of us.
