Lovely expression captured here with good colours shining through on the birds feathers. Good lighting and angle here which. Brings through good crisp detail. Great job and thanks for sharing

Is that snow in the background? They don't usually arrive at my place until mid May, long after there is any snow around. Anyway she is nicely shown with fine detail and good colors.

Thank you! Yep snow! Not sure why she was in our area, I don't usually see them either until around May.

A nice looking nature photo presented here! Your fine and central image gives us an enjoyable look at your bird. Like that sharp looking beak! Exposure and sharpness are good. Nicely done!

Thank you very much!

Comment from Lucas Sizov
Perfectly cropped, the season is recognizible with snow, ice and frost. Winter is the hardest time for the birds and animals. They need to survive and find food... this bird looks lonely. Perfect shot, Grace!!!

Thank you Lucas. I feed the birds at my house, maybe this gal should visit me there! She looks like she is getting food though :)

It is very pretty. I love the colors and how they blend together. It is a clear crisp shot of a beautiful creature. I have not seen one here in the south maybe one will fly by my way soon. Thank you for sharing

Love your notes. i always learn a lot. Yep! Your are getting to be an expert with birds. (watch out Michigan Mike). This is a lovely posed bird within its natural back ground. The tones and hues of her feathers blend well with ground and snow. Awesome focus and lighting. Terrific cropping and very well framed.
