Seems like I have been spending a lot of time stuck at home lately, waiting for this or that repairman to arrive. As a result, I am forced to work on my yardbirds. Here's one from today, and it's a good thing I got it because Mr. Fixit never showed up.

Canon 1D, 500 w/1.4, ISO 400, 1/320 @ f/5.6 BB minus 1

Very nice! That BG is sure an intense green. Along with those bright red berries it's a good thing the bird is large in the frame in order to be able to compete for the viewers attention. Well done.

Christmas card is right. Beautiful. This is a skittish little bird, generally, and you've caught an adorable pose on an exceptional perch. Great work!
