This guy looks great against the brilliant shade of blue in the sky. The sun is highlighting his feathers nicely. I like how well his eye shows even while his face is buried in his chest!

A very eye catching scene here. The vivid blue sky accents the bird so well. The sharp focus really brings out the details in the feathers. The lighting adds such a nice bit of drama. Nice work Eileen ~ Steve

Beautiful capture, this mockingbird up on the wire, he looks like he might be trying to catch a nap, his eye is half closed, this is well focused, clear to view, exposure is well controlled, colors and tones appear natural, nice detail throughout his feathers , I like his pose ! Blue sky is the perfect background! Well presented!
