House Wren

[Guy Germain]

Hi,

Photographed in my backyard.
This bird feeds its chicks. It is also in the extreme East of its breeding range.
So it is a rarity for my area!

Like it a lot Guy! Good look at a tough bird to photograph with great sharpness and a meal in its beak! I might consider evening out the BG to green (just what is the misty white stuff?) and cropping a bitt off the left. Thanks for posting.

I love the pose and the way he's holding up the meal. Another vote for fixing the BG a bit. Thanks for sharing it!

I'm with the others on evening the bg but the pose,comp. and details are super and the snack is an added bonus....

Very nice Guy! Love that perch, and I even like the white fluff on it :-) I have had no luck with this species...congrats on a rare sighting (for you) and taking advantage of it.

wonderful image Guy... as good as anything I have seen on this species.

Good pose and detail.

Love the pose and the worm puts it over the top as well as the wonderful low angle. Agree with the above comments and the BG. Many thanks for sharing Guy.

Quant au BG, je l'aime bien comme il l'est.
