    Love the calling pose, BG and perch in general. Also love the crop even though I might take some off the top for better balance between the bird and those delicate flowers LLC. The perch's leafy part running through the bird and shadow not withstanding, I am amazed you get such IQ from a large crop on that small sensor. That camera looks special getting all this with small light lenses with 2x magnification. Keep them coming... TFS

    Nice pose and wonderful clarity. I like the perch. I suppose I'd also like to see it with a little more taken off the top to de-center the bird
