Jim:

Simple strong composition, with attractive perch, nice colors. Sharp, with good exposure, nice details in yellows.

I might also consider a vertical version.

There is a visible horizontal line in the BG, RLC, about the level of the birds feet. Possibly from your barbed wire?

Very nice image.

Wow it this sweet. Loverly BKGR. The line is faint at best. HA and tongue killer. Did you use audio? (BTW, Jim has written a a great Central Florida Site Guide that is available through BAA here: https://store.birdsasart.com/shop/category.aspx?catid=19

I don't know why the thumbnail doesn't appear.

Very nice pic. Love the singing pose. Might be the first image from you that I've seen that's not a flight shot!!

I agree with the others.....outstanding image!
I do not see the line the others mentioned?

I can't remember if I used audio or not. I think I was just driving by an saw him singing, but I'm not positive. I do it both ways for the Meadowlarks.
