Bird Was Mad!

[PixelRabbit]

This little one was sooooo angry! There was a pair of Cardinals invading his spot and he was not shy about voicing his opinion, the Cardinals gave him his space until he had his fill and chilled out a little lol

Would love to hear your thoughts, thanks for taking a look!

I think it's good! Maybe a little tighter crop? I'm not having much luck with my wildlife shots yet.

+1 to a little tighter crop, but otherwise a nice shot!
if that bird were any angrier, i would expect to see it on a slingshot!

my only issue here is the motion blur on the wing. im guessing you were using a slow shutter speed on this one.

Looks like birdie has an itch! An unusual shot. I enjoy opening your threads, J; I never,EVER know WHAT the heck I will see in them!!!

Nice. Maybe crop off the bottom.

Looks like a sneeze to me.

you asked for thoughts............. The one piece of grass Top right is drawing attention from the bird . The photo looks to me to have a blue cast (Auto white balance ?) I like the crop as-is . I like the action of the bird ,Over all I like the shot !

What seems to be the problem with your wildlife shots snerd? Maybe I can offer some assistance - not a pro but I do a lot of wildlife photography myself. This is one of my favorite bird pics:

Like I said, not a professional but as you can see I spend quite a bit of time taking pictures of various critters so if I can be of assistance I'd be happy to

I was SO tempted to post Peter Griffin's rendition of that!!!

Thanks all!

I toiled over the crop on this one, problem is the closer I crop the more noise shows

Hop, I see the slight blue cast, I will revisit that, this is the first one of the set I processed and I do believe I warmed up the rest.

There seems to be something like a beam of light or stream of something coming out of his butt, otherwise I like it just as is.

Thanks Baturn
I didn't even notice that until you mentioned it! Now I can't unsee it lol
