    Default Eastern Kingbird

    This was taken last June at Buttercup Farm Audubon sanctuary in Dutchess County, NY. It's a rather large crop but this is the best kingbird image I have so far. :)

    It's a great pose with a nice perch and BG! Sharpness suffers due to the heavy crop, but I still like it a lot! Thanks for posting!

    This is very well done. Your work is improving. I like the open bill, the partially raised wings, and of course, the BKGR. For a large crop, image quality looks pretty good.

    I like the open bill, eye contact and BG. Maybe a bit more sharpening.

    Is he qualifying for the Olympic games as his pose seems to imply? :)

    Well done, Beth.
