Black-Crested Titmouse

[Barry Ekstrand]

First Black-Crested Titmouse that I've come across, this was taken a couple of weeks ago when I visited a South Texas hunting ranch.

Canon 5D Mark III, Canon 500mm f4L IS II, Canon EF 2X III Teleconverter

1000mm, f8, 1/2500 sec, ISO 1250, Manual Mode

All comments appreciated.

Although the perch has a ton of character, it is large for the bird.
The Titmouse looks terrific…...

Great job getting nice details in your bird. You have a killer BG and a perch with a lot of character. I think this would have worked even better had there not been such a dark shadow on the perch. It's unique, and I always like unique.
