Jerry, nice exposure for being backlit, nice details, HA and BG, wish the perch was natural though.

Yes, shame about the perch but the rest is really stunning. That blue is electric and just magic. IQ, tones and background all excellent. Great DOF too. I'd be tempted to shave a bit off the top of the frame but no big deal. The shot works well as is. Thanks for sharing.

It is a wonderful image of a beautiful bird. Lighting, focus, detail, background all working together. I don't mind the perch but would like to see it level.

Hi Jerry and welcome to BPN. Thanks a stack for your membership support.
This is a very nice image despite the backlight/sidelight. SH and image design are spot on. And I do not hate the perch. You did well handling the resulting problems. My favorite colors and feathers are the shaded ones :)
with love, artie
ps: you might try setting up a few thin, attractive, just-taller-than-the-tallest barbed wire perches near the nest boxes ...

a really attractive bird Jerry .. wonderful blue colours ....... good to see all the details in the back of the bird
I don't mine the perch at all ...... lots of bird species seem to prefer barbed wire ...... even the rusty stuff

Lovely looking frame Jerry. I love the colours and pose on the bird. I also like the rusted look on the perch, which blend nicely with the BG.
