Hey Don...not bad at all. The background is slightly distracting, but otherwise pretty darned good!

Don't worry to much Don about the lack of replies, sometimes it goes in spurts around here!

Looks pretty good to me, but I agree with Richard about the background being just a bit distracting.

Thanks fellas it means a lot to hear some good remarks from two pros. Yea it was real late and the background is a neighbor's back porch :) The reddish to left is a brick wall .I had to act fast .Bird was skittish .

Beautiful shot of a beautiful bird, Don.

I would love to see one of these in person.

Thanks Lance ,and you really are the guy that posts great shots of birds all the time so if you like it I did something right :)
I am lucky we have another pair in our box on the other side of yard .
I got an earlier morning shot that really shows the magic of 400 5.6 that I will post later.
