Very neat to get three males lined up like this, Sandy. What time of year was this? Looks like a late winter early spring shot as they’d be dispersed by this time of year.

To my eye, the colors are a bit over saturated for what I see in ours.

Hi Sandy
Love the interaction of these three Bluebirds, I agree with Dennis the saturation looks a little over the top. Nice framing.

I love the tryptich(?) look of this one with the fence and the three bluebirds Sandy. Great detail, crisp, clean and clear. I like the saturation level, but I’m a sucker for bright and shiny things. Nice post.
