Barn swallow on a overcast and windy day. Image adjustments in Lightroom. Hand held, small crop. Canon 5D MarkIII Sigma 150-600 Contemporary 600mm ISO 1600 F6.3 1/1250sec
Nice fluffed up bird on a cool perch, the background is a bit bright, overpowering the more subtle colors of the subject.
I like this. It really shows the environment very well. Another vote for toning down the BG so that the swallow appears better. I would also soften or remove the one horizontal OOF branch to the left of the swallow.I find my eye drifting to it. Gail

Lovely colours throughout the image John. I agree about toning down the BG, I think that would show the bird even better. Love the pose and the perch. Will
