Great image, Ron. Perfect BG, strong colors and pose. An ideal image. Grass adds balance.

A truly beautiful image, Ron. Excellent pose, background and perch. The green vegetation on the left nicely balances to composition. I may recall you mentioning that they nest in your garden. It must be amazing to watch them. I put up a nest box in my garden for them 20 plus years ago but it had never been used.

Perfect content and composition - so beautifully balanced. The pose, colour and detail on the bluebird are absolutely gorgeous, and that almost soulful eye is really precious. Superb image, Ron, a worthy follow on from your previous view and a pleasure to see. I Love it!
