Now this is true photography. Your patience and effort into this shot does not go unnoticed. You have framed this excellently, leveled, given him the right amount of space. And the focus is TOP NOTCH. This is excellent, and has shown me this is a photography page rather than a social media page. Thank you for this!

I love the composition. The three colors going across are so pretty together. The blue the gold and brown. The bird is so pretty with its metallic looking feathers. It is simply beautiful.

We don't always think of them as a pretty bird (more of as a nuisance). But when the sun hits them from the right angle they do glow with color. You have captured this moment well. Good sharp focus. Goo color. Well controlled light. Nice back ground. Nicely done.

What a show off. May be he is waiting for his first date!:):) Lovely shot! You have framed it well. The light and shadows, colours and the composition have worked out well. Good effort!

Nice shot you captured here of this cowbird. The clarity of the bird is great and composition is excellent. He looks like he's soaking up the sun and enjoying the nice weather. Thanks for sharing

Focus is very sharp, showing very clear and well-defined details throughout the bird. The lighting is excellent enhancing the overall look of the bird. The shine adds to the overall presentation.

A good nature shot posted here! Your almost central composition provides us with an enjoyable view of your handsome bird. Exposure and sharpness are good. Nicely done.

Thus is a fine shot of this little bird. The blurred background is a nice foil and enhances and pops out your main subject. Great use of light and I love that petrol blue sheen which highlights various details and draws the eye as a focal point.
