    Default Tree Swallow (part deux)

    I was going to post my image of a Ivory Billed Woodpecker.... but due to an overwhelming response from my first Tree Swallow image, I was compelled to post another image of this elegant iridescent bird. :D



    Nikon D300 ~ Nikkor 300 mm F/2.8
    ISO 200 ~ F/5.6 ~ 1/2000 sec ~ -1/3 EV

    Great perch, BG and composition. I wish we could see the beak a bit better.

    Nice bird and perch. Vertical was the logical choice here. I'd give it a bit more room at bottom for the vegetation down there.

    Very nice, clean composition and great colors. Concur with Lou's head angle comment. Reading Daniel's comment, I think I agree. Add'l space below would give the new growth more breathing room.

    I was not aware that Ivory Bills ranged as far north as Minnesota. Who knew?
