Fantastic capture Bob :)
I hope to some day actually see this bird in front of my lens.
You have fine eye clarity and sharp focus showing the beautiful coloring and feather details. I feel a bit more space was needed up top and at bottom, but that is a personal preference.
Beautiful bird Photography.

Comment from Donna Ruiz


Quite impressed that you could capture such a clean shot through a window. The color is amazing. Your White Balance setting looks correct for an overcast day. Great sharp focus on that eye. I do wish that you had left a little more room around the bird rather than such a tight crop but, that's a minor issue. So glad that you got lucky and that you shared that luck with FAR members.

I have never had the pleasure of seeing these, I dont think we have these here, what beautiful colour, nicely done, they sound like the cat bird, you know they are around but to spot them is like a lot of patience

You are a brilliant photographer and I love viewing your beautiful clicks. This is again a superb shot and you captured this gorgeous bird in all its grandeur and with such vivid details. Truly crisp shot. Bird may have obliged to an extent but you have composed this to perfection. It's tempting me to use it as a reference for a watercolour painting- it's that flawless in appeal. Applause

This is a stunning photo, especially for one taken through a window! The ultra bright colors of this bluebird are excellent and the details are so well captured. Catching an clear eye view is most desirable when photographing wild animals and you have done that very well. His stance on the perch is perfect and the softened background gives this bird wonderful highlight. I often feel that photography is as much luck as it is skill and you have covered both in this amazing photo! Well done!!

lucky once more to get a shot of this beautiful blue bird, but once again I don't see the neeed to spoil it by oversaturating the blue color;(this is obvious when you look at the edge of the metal arch)

Your capture is outstanding. This bird is gorgeous. Its colors are fascinating. Your photo is perfect focused and exposed and has good depth. I enjoy the sharpness of detail and the realism of color and light. The tight framing is adequate. The bird is excellent placed within the frame. The composition is balanced.

Comment from Glena Jessee-King


Excellent capture of this older bird. Your work made him more beautiful, his blue that is. I wondered why it looked like blue paint was dappled on in places but you explained it so well and with his lovely oranges and whites in front and smooth, young looking tail feathers, his youth is renewed somewhat. Nice background and blue-tinted perch as well.
