Bridled Sparrow- Theme

[Lorant Voros]

With my friend Manuel we get to see many endemic Mexican species, such as this one the Bridled Sparrow...thanks to his expertise as a specialist of the birds of Mexico . It was photographed in Oaxaca, when we took a 20 minutes photo stop while moving between two locations by car.
This is not a set up; the bird landed in this nice perch (as well) while we called it with audio.

Lorant:

Very nice capture, very good for a natural perch, nice pose and techs.

Could see a version with birded moved to the left a smidge. Only downside would be clipped leaves.

Cheers

Beautiful capture and singing pose. For not being a set up you couldn't of asked for a better perch, background & lighting. Audio really helps bring out those singing shots.

Also, great looking website you have with an awesome bird gallery!
