Female Superb Fairy-wren looking a bit cute ? This little family of Wrens were hanging around a beach side picnic area .
Canon 7D + 500 f4 + 1.4 X TC...700mm, f 6.3, ISO 400 1/400, -0.3EV, tripod mounted, dull winter skies, cloned out extra piece of wire under birds perch and selective sharpen and noise reduction
oops, just uploaded the wrong image, this version hasn't had background cleaned up thoroughly and dont know how to delete it
This gets extra points for cuteness factor and making me smile! Tack sharp and great BG.
My only wish is that we could see both eyes equally.
A really sweet shot!

Great inquisitive pose/posture and definite cuteness factor with good detail and sharpness. Well done, Phil!
TFS,

Inquisitive pose, nice background. I too wish that we could see both eyes, or just one. The hollow of the one in shadow isn't too pleasing.
Yes, cute indeed!! Well exposed and sharp. Love the little tail sprung up. Not crazy about the perch (what is it?) and reducing the sahdow in the far eye's "shallow" would certainly help. I would also prefer a less centered composition.
Super cute for sure. Beautiful pose and BG. I agree with the comments above; mostly with seeing the 2nd eye would be very good. Composition could indeed be better too. The perch makes me wonder, but doesn't bother be that much. Well done and TFS.
Very very sweet image of cute little one.Love beautiful pose,details and BG.
What a superb pose, very cool shot TFS
Just love the pose, sharpness, and the shallow DOF, Phil. The bg ain't shabby either.
Goofy, cute pose, Phil.
You seem to get really close-up shots, nice job.
