This male Eastern Bluebird was bringing Dragonflies to its young every 5 minutes, maybe I should name this "Crunch Time". Taken near Montezuma National Wildlife Refuge, Seneca Falls, N.Y. . Fred Bertram
I think you did a great job capturing this image with such a nice background. This image looks like a heavy crop and if that's the case I would leave more room around your subject.
Nice BKGR and a great dragonfly, but Maxis is right, it needs more room. Clipping the tail as you did is a mortal sin
In additon, the image is way over-saturated.

Cool image! Yep, I'd love to see his tail too. I love the detail in the feathers/feet of the bluebird and in the dragonfly. Too bad it didn't have a "better" perch.
