I'm envious. Beautiful shot too. We had these guys around the farm when I was a kid, but I haven't seen one in years. I miss them. Can't wait to see if spring brings some around. :)

Beautiful image.

What's the secret? I have had several photo ops with Wrens and have yet to have a series turn out worth a darn!

Excellent capture. Very well done.

Great shot. I' ve yet to capture a wren. First, I spot them, then by the time I focus they're gone.

These wrens are FAST and it is so hard to get a good shot. You got a great one there!

Marvelous shot of a tough bird to catch. Pose is great!

Really nice shot. We have had a lot of Carolina Wrens around here (Delaware) lately. They look just like the Bewick.

Fantastic shot downy!
Very nice angle and bokeh. Looks like you were lieing down. :lol:

Nicely composed and exposed well. The composition in the shot works well. This is a fine shot that works well! Well done.

Excellent caoture and beautiful image. Great use of DOF on the bird and wonderful BG makes this one pop. My only suggestion would be to crop half or a bit more of the OOF and bright perch the bird is on. I think this would improve an already great image.
