Colors are great and I like the feeding bird -- there are 3-4 partial beries on the right side that would be easy to remove -- the uptail is a grand pose

beautiful tail position with a great timing!

Great shot Alan. I also noticed that at ISO 800 the noise is not visible to any extent. I think it's a winner.

Tail up and berry are killer. Was this at a set-up?

Always enjoy looking at your setting...

Yes, this was at a water drip.

Thanks Alan, The two apparently clipped twigs that the bird is holding onto bug me a bit. Is there any reason that you did not clip them right down to the branch and deal with the scars later?

Good question. Those are natural. I did miss the one clipped branch under the perch though.

Great looking bird, nicely done this setting and the pose is too good..

Hi Alan, This is a fantastic Image. I went through your blog. Very much impressed by the way you prepare the set-ups..
