Quick, Out the Back Door

I'm sure that I'll be criticized for not showing the complete bird here, but I found this unique nesting image quite interesting. I hope that you do too. The bird is a Black Capped Social Weaver - Pseudonigrita cabanisi. Their nest frequently have three entrances and exits. This was created in Samburu, Kenya. Hope that you like my image. C and C welcomed, I'm here to learn. - John

I like seeing this unusual nest a lot and would only sharpen the bird more.

Interesting image John. Agreed about sharpening more. In fact, the nest seems sharper than the bird's head by a fraction.

By only showing the head doesnt bother me, but I would liked to have seen more space at the bottom to look into.
