Cute Phoebe....one of my favorite summer birds. The fence isn't the best perch....but they land where they land. I'd have like to seen all the tail.....although not possible with the fence. Even though there is some room at the bottom.....perhaps to prevent more distraction from the fence......I get the feeling (maybe more of an illusion since the fence is gray) that there needs to be more room for the "hidden tail".
Thanks for the feedback, Lana. That bar at the bottom was pretty wide so it blocked the rest of tail entirely. I actually cropped from the bottom in order to eliminate most of it but I felt I had to include at least some because the tail would, otherwise, really look clipped.
