Sedge Wren image from last August. I have a few similar images with a green backdrop, but this pose was the best despite blue background.
It was selected for inclusion in the Dec 2023 issue of Missouri Conservationist magazine.
Nikon Z9, 800/6.3 S
f6.3, 1/1250s, iso800
The legs are fantastic! Love the singing pose as well. I think you could have dropped to f/9 (and ISO 1600) an preserved a bit more detail across the perch (and particularly on the right bit). But overall a really sweet image.
