Nice elegant shot, Mike. I personally like the inclusion of some of the environment like this when it adds to the beauty of the photo.

You captured this puffed-up guy really nicely, Steve. Marsh Wrens are fairly common here in marshy environments , but refuse to cooperate as photo subjects.:-( I've photographed very few of them.

Thank you very much, Mark. I try to remember to include some environment in my shots, but usually get carried away with shooting close-ups.:-(

Love it! A minimalistic bird portrait. You don't see that every day.

Your comment is a face-lift to my photo.
Thanks!
