Nice bird. What kind of bird is that? We don't seem to have those birds in my country.
Lovely background. Perfect colour!
Would it NOT have worked without the application of the on-camera flash (assuming you used that, given the straight, harsh shadows of the leaves on leaf).

That is a female Cardinal.

The backround colors work very well with the Cardinal.


I hate twigs too.

I don't find the Lilac bush branch much of a distraction, this is a wild bird. great shot. I just would have cropped alittle more off of the tail side of the picture.

It was late evening so the flash, or 1/30th sec was my choice. With the 600mm I went with the flash....Mike
