Well exposed and sharp and a good catch! Pose a bit awkward and BKGR a bit busy.

later and love, artie

Thank you Art!:) The pose I thought was different, but I do admit awkward for the bird.

Nice image Nancy. It's great that you got this little guy out in the open, the tadpole in the bird's bill really adds to the image.

Beautiful bird... I think this is a great representation of this bird in his environment. Perhaps the pose is just awkward for us humans as it seems to be serving him just fine.

Thank you Caroline!:) I was thrilled with the tadpole, but did not know I had it till I got home.

Hi Steve, I agree on all counts. What I meant is that the pose is awkward in an artistic sense... later and love, artie

Nice capture. I love the pose....the way the bird is clutching the reeds is pretty cute and indicates an individual style! The tadpole is a big plus as is the wings up pose. I like the background. Well done.
