This is a quite beautiful image! The blossomy branch is a wonderful setting for the shot. The posture and behaviour of the bird also add interest. It is colourful and well composed. I really like it!

If I could offer one small suggestion, it would be to move your copyright to the bottom left corner where it would be less distracting.

Thank you so much for the wonderful comment and suggestion!

I don't know if I will move it from there. When I used toΒ keep my watermarks on the corners they would be cropped out by users on wallpaper sites or "art thieves."Β It was very frustrating so i started putting them near the subjects and the amount of theft has gone down significantly because of it. But I definitely will consider resizing it and adjusting the transparency because it is very large and bold and believe me, I don't want it to take away from the photo.

Wonderful shot, I love the contrast between the bird and the blossom, you couldn't have asked it to land in a better spot

Thank you so much! I agree, and I'm very glad he chose to land there. I wish the sparrows had been as equally co-operative

Grackles can be obnoxious but I still think they're beautiful! I love the iridescence you caught on the face and the cropping of the bird within the frame on the tilted branch is very aesthetically pleasing!

8TwilightAngel8 In reply to Crazdude [2013-05-30 00:03:28 +0000 UTC]

I agree! I love the sheen on their feathers. It changes from blur to gold and green, depending on the light.

Thank you so much! I'm very glad you like it!
