I captured this image yesterday while driving slowly along Joe Overstreet Road in Osceola County, Florida. I went with the 16x9 crop because the image with the long tail moved the bird too far left looking unbalanced using a 3x2 crop. Comments and critique welcomed and appreciated. Thank you for viewing.

Hi Joseph simple but effective portrait , well exposed with a nice tonal range .
The perch is not ideal...... but not much to do about it.
Image is a bit on the cool side and maybe a tad more sharpening could be better .
