    Default Eastern Phoebe

    I have a pair of Phoebes nesting on the garage and this one dropped in for a quick splash while I was in the blind at the stream.



    Lightened the dark area as per suggestions.

    All-around sweet. Like the perch and the head angle and most of the BKGR. You might try to lighten the dark area by the uppertail coverts.

    Very nice details, light and BG. I agree with Artie regarding the dark spot that is a bit distracting.

    Nice over the shoulder look here Mike. The bird is sharp and goes well with the perch.

    A very nice image, as noted above. There are a number of small dust spots that show up in the background.
