This is a beautuful capture. The detail in the bird, exposure and BG all work nicely. This type of perch can be distracting but I don't find that here, possibly because I associate this species with this type of fencing. Excellent work!

So nice. Simplicity, drama in the bird's focused attention, human impact shown by barbed wire, stark color composition, tack sharp, great bokeh.
