Willie,
A great picture of the Mocking bird resting between songs. Beautiful composition, background & framing taken with superb camera techniques & razor sharp focus.

This is just a lovely image of this Mockingbird Willie.
I love the nest he is perched on and your background is perfect.
I wish you the best of luck in the contest.

Excellent capture Willie and should have known this was your image. The clarity itself if superb with the b.g. colors taking the image to a new level. Nice pose as the mocking bird seems to be looking over his shoulder at you. Gorgeous natural colors and excellent d.o.f. A stunner!

That's the one! Pretty little bird. Nice colors. Little fella has room to move ahead but looks quite comfortable. Good luck in the contest.

So this is what a Mockingbird looks like! Very pretty bird with apricot toned feathers on his body. Focus is spot on and I like your framing too. The textures in the old plant material are interesting and the colours tone in very well with those in the background which is pleasantly blurred. Good Luck in the contest.

Even Audubon would love this photo. I think it is a prize winner. The use of a narrow depth of field brings out the mocker perfectly. Furthermore, mocking birds are among my most favorite natural creatures. Hence, seeing this photo, done so well,is a real treat.

Yes I do recall the song. Excellent photo, Good job in getting the full body view and head shot. You picture has all the elements to help identify this particular bird. Focus, DoF and other camera skills are spot on. Well done Willie

Excellent sharp focus. Love the depth of field with the background perfectly blurred to highlight the subject all the more. The subtle colors of the background also serve not to distract the eye. The composition is well done with the bird in his natural world, and the twining branches add both texture and interest.
