Burrowing Owl

[Robert Holguin]

Hello everyone. Well Im still visiting this little guy. The other morning I went by since the sun was on the oppossite side of what I usually shot it from. To see if the green trees behind its burrow would make a good background. I was really happy with the results. C&C welcomed and encouraged.
Camera - Nikon 300s, Lense - Nikon 200-400/1.4 tc, Exposure - 1/500, Aperture - F8, ISO - 400, Metering - Multi-Segment, Manual.

I like the green background, but to me it looks too saturated and competes with the bird for attention. I also would run nr on it. Since the bird is a regular for you, would there be any chance that you could put a more natural perch near this one and hope that he chooses it?

Thank you all very much for all the commetns. Much appreciated.

Grace - I have really thought about it but I kinda feel like its wrong. Dont know yet. Ill see.
