Nice capture Oscar, I like the wing position. Your bird is a little hot on the upper portion of the right wing...:cool:

love the environmental!! bird looks sharp, just wished it was bigger in the frame!! need to go to the alligator farm in st aug!! that lens is perfect there!! good to see you yesterday!! got to get together more often with you guys. that's a lot of fun!!

Oscar I like these type images with small bird in frame !!! The key is having a good bg like you have here Would have preferred the bird a little higher but this is good. Also wing position applies like for any other image .... fully up would have been great !!!! Excellent image !!!!

Oscar - works for me the way it is - enjoy seeing the habitat.

Good background; clear, sharp bird totally stands out from the background (the color of the bird also helps here). If you had shot this with a longer lens, it would be a different photo all together. We would not have known much about the bird's habitat as it is shown now. The only thing I have is the position of the bird in the entire photo. I tend to agree to Al's suggestion on that.

I like it! Love habitat images and this one works.
