A beautiful capture of this Greckle, a bird we don't have over here in the UK, taken with great sharp clarity and excellent timing that shows the bird in full mid flight mode, wing(s) outstretched to the maximum and exposing the beautiful and complex colours and patterning of its wings and indeed the full side profile of the whole Greckle, streamlined and with a determined look in its eye as it raises higher up in the air. Cropped neatly in the centre of the image with just a clear blue sky behind to accentuate the subject and really make it pop, a fantastic shot and brilliant entry for the contest - best of luck :)

This is a great photograph of the Grackle. It's so beautiful to see the colors unfold on the wings. It's a simple but very beautiful piece . The bird looks so determined very confident in flight.
Thanks for showing the beauty of this bird in flight.

This was a very interesting post. I learned a lot I did not know. The image is very interesting. You have beautifully (luckily) captured the many colors that can be found in the body and wings of the bird. Great colors, strong focus, good stop action. So many wonderful details in this shot. Well seen and well captured. Thank you for sharing.

I love grackles because of the iridescent reflections of their feathers. This is a splendid action shot and I like the way you framed it for maximum impact. Best wishes in the contest.
