Another from the session in my blind a few days ago. It’s been cool and foggy until noon since this and the non-feeder birds have been too busy looking for food to get to the water features very early, so this is my only sighting of this guy thus far.

### What technical feedback would you like if any?

Anything. Cropped some off the right and then added canvas there using content aware crop because I wanted to get rid of the perch holder on that side.

### What artistic feedback would you like if any?

A tighter crop than I would normally like, but it landed close to the end of the perch where it entered a pvc pipe that holds the perch. Does this still work?

### Pertinent technical details or techniques:

(If backgrounds have been removed, etc. please be honest with your techniques to help others learn)  
7DII, Sigma 150-600 C @ 600 mm, tripod with ballhead and Sidekick, f/8, 1/400, iso 2000, manual exposure. Processed in LR & PS CC. Cropped to 11 MP. Taken May 29th at 11:56 am under cloudy skies.

A nice close-up look at the warbler. The loose piece of bark adds some interest. Your setup gives you a nice background.

Wow Dennis I think this is terrific. Love the pose with the body angled toward us and great eye position. Nice background and perch. Sharp. A species I have rarely seen (and zero shots for me) – makes me want one of those water feature thingies you have. Well done!

Nice image. Not too tight for me. Perfect for a field guide. Good detail and a perfect pose. My only suggestion is to provide a more interesting perch for your setup.
