    I really like the moment where it just leaves its perch, nicely captured! Background is also really nice.
    Thank you for sharing!

    Nice takeoff pose from a well balanced perch. I like the blurred wings as they add to the action going on. I would have wished that the bird took off a little more toward you.

    Hi Jonathatn,
    Lovely little fellow and a beautiful background! I like the way one of the feet is off the perch.
    I, too, wish the bird looked a little bit more towards you.

    Excellent composition, beautiful BG, and a sharp body. The wing blur conveys a nice sense of motion, but I wish the bird was taking off slightly towards us.
