Female Purple Finch

One from early this summer that I never got around to posting.

7DII, Sigma 150-600 C @ 600 mm, don't recall whether I used a tripod for this, f/9, 1/160, iso 640, aperture priority pattern metering. Processed in LR5 & CS6. Cropped to 14.7 MP before resizing. Taken at 6:00 AM on May 30th near our backyard feeder setup.

Comments and criticisms are always appreciated.

Thanks,

I love images of small birds that allow you to see all the detail. They are so beautiful.

Nice perch and background. Well composed. Good detail and I like how the head feathers are sticking up.
