Yoram it is good to notice that you have been able to focus sharply on the cuckoo inspite of it being in a shrub with white flowers obstructing the view. It looks like a fine focus. The details have come out sharp, colours good and the DOF great with a acceptable BG.

Good work, Warm regards, Kiran.

Hello Yoram,
This is a fine capture of a Greater Spotted Cuckoo with good sharpness, BG and comp. The whitish obstructions are the only things that prevent this being a top quality shot.
Well done and TFS!
