Photo taken at Laguna Seca Ranch in South Texas last week.

Nikon D810, 300mm lens, 1.4 TC, 1/800 sec at f/8.0, ISO 200.

I always like multiple birds on a perch, and like it even more when they're different species.

Carrion anyone? Each bird looks good by it self and even better together. Techs and details look great. Well done

Depictive of how our current political scenario SHOULD be. Great shot.

Awesome work Gene. Two really cool species on one funky perch. I'd love an image like this to grace the display on the back of my camera .... One day. The vegetation in the BG also adds to the strength here. Cheers
Thanks for looking,

Super shot Gene. Always wonderful to have two different species of birds on the same perch. I like their
unique poses.
