Snow Bunting.

[Karl Egressy]

We have lot of flocks flying around in our area, but it is not typical to see them up in Algonquin.
Thanks for looking.

Great shot of a snow bunting. Exposure and details are beautiful and the HA is just about perfect. Dont think it gets much better. Well done

[Vivaldo Damilano]

Very cool shot Karl, love the snow, make this bird pop so nicely. Great low angle and head angle, nicely done.

[Bill Dix]

Great shot of this little guy. Good detail and exposure; low POV. Amazing to get so close to him.

[Richard Unsworth]

All fits, and that snow is awesome.
There is a tiny white spot on wing covert that is distracting but the shot is exceptional

[Dennis Zaebst]

Agree this is an exceptional shot with a great low POV. The whites were handled perfectly. It appears there is just a bit of (snow?) on the bill, which I might try to clean up. Very well done though.

[Jim Crosswell]

I like the low angle, sharpness, details, exposure and snow. I might take some off the bottom but fine as presented. Very well done Karl!

[Randy Stout]

Karl: Nicely captured with good exposure,pose and sharpness.

Agree with Jim about a sliver off the bottom.

Cheers

Thanks Jim. Thank you all. You have a point Jim and Randy. I just removed a little from the bottom, right above my signiture.

[Jim Crosswell]

Looks great Karl!

This is a very nice image. Great detail, sharpness and exposure on the whites. The repost is even better. TFS
