I rarely have opportunity to do setup.
This is from Algonquin P. P. using Tamarac tree branches that is native there.

Nice looking setup shot Karl. I like the pose and the way the perch frames the Jay. Details and BG look great too. Well done

Very nice Karl. The bird and perch could go higher in the frame for me.
