Hi Paul, That is one very wet bird. Sharp with a few too many distracting branches, esp. the one by its chin. Bad luck on the lost tail.
with love, artie

The second image offers a much clearer view, the bird is well delineated. It may be worthwhile lifting the darkest areas a little and perhaps lowering the yellow luminosity to determine if a little more detail becomes apparent.

I too like the second one better. Were you working at a bird bath that you set up?

Hi Artie,
There was a bird bath there, it was one of the photo blinds at the park.
Hope to go back next year for a copule of weeks in late April; would really like more nesting painted buntings on territory, got some near Corpus Christi, but apparently they are quite abundant at South Llano River SP, was just a week or so early I guess. Any suggestions for good spots in Texas for painted buntings?
Thanks,
Paul

Thank you. I'd like to get him again when I go back a little less wet too.
