That's a cracker Conrad! I like everything about this shot - great pose, sharpness, perch and the beautiful "spotlight" effect of the background. Well done.

Very nice image Conrad!! Sweet BG and lovely colours. Looks like this waxwing plucked the last remain berry off that branch. If anything I'd be tempted to lighten the iris just a bit. Very well done!!

Thank you Gary! It was my lucky shot of the day with the last berry on that particular branch

Thanks Daniel. I appreciate it!
Conrad, great photo. Love the timing of the last berry, the colours, the BG and the detail.
Nicely done Conrad. I also like the spotlight effect of the rich BG colors. The reflection of the sky visible in the eye is nice too.
Hey Conrad, that is an excellent one. Looks like the low light worked to your advantageBeautiful bg and colors. Love the pose. Where in San Jose did you get that.
