Agree about the angle Daniel. Went back and forth a bit on if I should remove that in post. Honestly so much grass there I did not see it when in the field. It was a fairly windy day and the grass was blowing quite a bit so I missed it back there. Only got off a 6 shot burst of the bird on that perch before it flew. Only 2 are of it singing so I was lucky to get it but a bit unlucky to have the perch lined up with the grass in the back. Of course 3 of the other 4 when it was facing away and not singing did not have the grass there.
But so it goes with bird photography.
