Oriole in Beach Plum

[Joe Senzatimore]

From this AM. Haven't seen this many Orioles(6 to 8) in one spot for many years. Maybe this will be our year for migrants. We havn't had a good migration in a very long time.

800ISO f5.6 at 1/1250th
Cropped for comp.

A very nice pose and I like the setting also.
Perhaps a bit of noise in bg.
Nice composition.

[Daniel Cadieux]

Nice subject, and beautiful perch...although I would have preffered it not mostly obstructed by the OOF branch. Just a bit more head turn would have been great, and I find the image has a slight greenish cast to it.

Here's hoping your wishes for a good migration comes true!!

Beautiful color and detail Joe and I really like the pose you captured in this image. Superb eye contact as well as the blossoms add a very lovely touch to this whole composition. Very enjoyable to look at and thanks for sharing.

Joe, I too like the setting. Good critique by Daniel. Nice looking perch. I like the side view showing the wings.

[Axel Hildebrandt]

Nice find and good perch. I wish the head were angled toward you more and would run NR on the BG. The OOF branch in the foreground has been mentioned.
