I have been taking a break from shooting birds lately(summer lull),but when i saw this one reported on the local hotline i had to check it out. I got there just before sunrise,there was still dew on the grass. The bird and the light were very cooperative. Love when everything works as planned.
Thanks for looking,

Dang, my nemesis bird, and what a great image you have here. Wish it was mine.

Love the setting. The dew on the vege really adds for me. Great light and details.
You cannot save time, you can only spend it wisely, or perhaps, freeze a moment of it forever in a photograph

It all came together on this frame. The bird looks great against that smooth colorful BG. Very nice work.
