So clear and crisp~ Yes the little bluee bird still looks soft and fluffy! :]
The colours meld nicely and the little touch of blue~~
The branches provide a nice side frame
the subject seems to be looking towards spring (like many of us) ^^

Very nice capture...I like how the subtle shades of blues in its wing and tail feathers are brought out.

Very nice. I have a pair that nests in my neighbor's Boxes. They eat raisins from the feeder.

Thank you! I didn't know they'd eat raisins! I plan on also putting out feeder boxes with some mealworms nearby

how much did you pay for your lens?
I'm so so super tempted to get this Sigma lens 150-500mm F5-6.3 for almost $900.

I bought it used for $1000 - I always keep an eye on craigslist to see if I can get a good deal. So far, I purchased my 70-200 and 100-400 lenses plus my 5D for great prices, used. All in perfect condition.

I bought my 25-105mm lens for $1k too but 105 is not much comparing to 500mm. so so tempted but that's a lot of money.
