Cholla Perch

I've been reprocessing some old files from a 30D in late summer light: Scaled Quail (or Blue as we call them) on Cholla near Spur TX. It's somewhat unusual to see them off the ground unlike Bobwhites.
30D 500mm @ 7.1 iso400 1/1000
about 75% of frame, cloned a couple OOF cholla limbs

Very nice composition, Barry. I like the way the cholla limbs frame the Quail. You also got a very good head turn from it.
