Mountain bluebird at Yellowstone. This male and his mate were taking turns feeding the chicks in the nest hole. I noticed that the adults had to drop an inch or two out of the hole when leaving in order to spread their wings so I fired away until I got this image. Sharpening of head and eye in CS5. I know the bright OOF patches are distracting and that, in retrospect, I should have changed my position to the right. All C/C welcome.
P.S. The bird was really that blue--everyone shooting this scene remarked about the strong color.
