Hi Julie - Big warm welcome to BPN - do not hesitate to jump right in and leave comments on other peoples images - no better or faster way to improve your own skills. All we ask is that you say what it is you like or dont like about the image.
Difficult one for a first post - BIF - Head on flying directly at the camera.
Will reserve my comments until others have had a chance - will be back.
Pls do include your full shooting info - enables us to offer better advice. - IM A IDIOT - there it is below the photo.

Greetings. Welcome to BPN... The colors are particularly attractive & sharp focus on the head. Perhaps, a bit more dof would have brought the wings more in focus. Don't know the camera but higher iso if you could to keep ss up...
Thanks for the comments Michael. I will have to remember to increase dof in other cases like this. I have to admit I was having a hard enough time just keeping the bird centered and trying to get the proper exposure that I kind of fell down on thinking about dof and the like :o
I was using a Canon 7D - up until I started shooting birds I didn't mind upping the ISO so much, but now - yikes!
And I'd really appreciate anyone else commenting and I'd especially like to hear your thoughts Lance. I can't improve
if I don't know what's wrong, so please, tell me!
