Inconvenient perch

Seen in a tree near our house. I don’t really like the big leaf but do like the bird. I tried redoing it as an extreme closeup, but wasn’t happy with that, either. He should have picked a better place to perch!

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by PBase are decidedly unsharp.

I like the way the bird pops up over the leaf, with its feathers ruffled.

Sometimes they aren't willing to cooperate. Nice shot I love those disturbed feathers.

You just need to offer him more money and he will pose better. :) I like this a lot anyway, leaf or no. ~BV~

I quite like the way the leaves, including the big one, frame this youngster, of which you have taken a very good sharp shot. V
