    Default Great-tailed Grackle

    I haven't seen too many images posted of this species. I found them to be a bit tricky to compose for and was happy to get one on a nice natural perch :)

    This is beautiful! Great light, details, pose, perch and BG. I might add a bit space at the top.

    This is really good Glenn, love the color hues on the bird, nice perch & background. Looks just a bit tight on the top.

    Very striking image Glenn and I like the alert pose and beautiful eye contact. Fine capture.

    Lovely colours shown in this overall, with a perfect comp. A great OOF BG rounds this off nicely. Well captured.
