Eastern Bluebird fledgeling

[rajojomanik]

Taken a week or so ago with a fellow member from another forum who's been following these bluebirds for sometime now. He finally managed to get the 'little guys' down from the nest.

Silkypic RAW converter and Elements 10 for processing.

Stands out well from the background, a tad soft...only a tad, a slight halo on the breast I think, but my monitor may be less than perfect. Sweet composition and he/she is beautifully posed making good eye contact with the camera, nice one for any collection I thinkl

Great pose on the bird. Not sure if it is a bit soft or if you are losing detail due to a crop??? Works well as presented. TFS

Nice finding, great pose and background, Ramon. I should look aroun in my area, I might find some fledgeligs.

Great bird on a nice perch. Beauty of a BG! I'd love to see the bird and perch brighter (use of flash would have been great) and also a better HA, which seems to be angled ever so slightly away. Looks sharp enough to me.

Beautiful shot, very nice IQ and BG. Looks sharp to me.

Like the bird and feather detail. I also like the BG a lot. I wish for a better head angle.
