Ridgefield NWR, This image was taken last sunday when the Marsh Wren's were out singing and recognizing Mother's Day! This is cropped to 70% of the original.

Excellent image, Craig. The narrow DOF and smooth background make the little guy really stand out. I also like the colors, very warm and inviting. This is a classic, excellent study of the Marsh Wren. Well done.

Super! Lovely golden glow and great DOF to isolate the bird from the BG.
