Bobolink

I like the composition and the pose, and the flowers really frame the subject well. The dark areas of the bird are lacking detail, however. Try dialing in some "plus" EV with a dark subject/ bright background like this. Also, you might try to recapture some of the detail in the blacks using the shadow / highlights command in photoshop. A nice catch of a bird that has for some reason eluded me.

A beautiful setting for the Bobolink, Rufus. I love the flowers and the bg. Unfortunately, the bright light and shadows ended up underexposing the Bobolink quite a bit and there's no light in the eye. If you're shooting in RAW you might be able to bring out detail in the blacks using the shadows/highlight adjustment in Photoshop. I don't think there's much you can do about the eye except go back and try in nicer light.
