    Black-throated Sparrow

    Green Valley, AZ

    D3, 600, ISO 400, F8, 1/1600.

    I was looking over some images from my last trip to AZ as I'm about to head out there soon. Here's one I don't believed I have shared. This was set up and playback used.

    If you twisted my arm I might say that the face is a bit too contrasty but otherwise superb. The cactus is too good as is the singing pose.

    I love the comp and detail captured. The balance of the image is great.

    very beautiful pose, perch and BG. perch is very nice, but the bird seems to be lacking your standard quality of details and sharpness.

    Great singing pose with open beak. Nice to know that even brown birds can look interesting, love the comp background and pose but expect nothing less. ;)

    Lovely on all counts. The blooming cactus is a bonus.
