    I made this during my last week trip to Idaho.

    I used Audio for the bird to land. My main target species was black throated sparrow and unexpectedly I saw these birds as well. I am going again this weekend to photograph them again.

    Nikon D850, 1.4x TCIII
    Info 1/640s f/5.6 ISO800



    Post Processing:-
    Medium Crop about 50%
    Capture one
    Photoshop

    Cloned out of focus green on right side.

    Let me know your thoughts and comments.

    Krishna, I am not too familiar with this species. I like that you tried something different on the image design and the desert feeling background is nice.

    For my tastes, I think there's just too much below. You are very talented with small-in-frame shots but I'd probably crop at least at the first gap in the shrub on the left side, if not further up.

    Also, I think it's a bit over-sharpened especially evident on the head. Also seems to be a little bit of blue coming in on right side of the chest feathers and the white tail feathers sticking up. Not sure why.

    As is usual with your framing, I love the overall canvas and framing here. Leads me right to the subject and I also like the depth added in the LRH corner. TFS

    Krishna beautiful image and do like your small in the frame shots agree very talented. I would go lean towards cutting more off the bottom, but I personally like the out of focus sage in the bottom right side in favor of more showing. Also like the warm background. TFS

    That background is gorgeous. Nice of the sparrow to perch on the top like that.
