[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is a re-editing of a previously edited photo, the original having been lost, so it may be slightly over-worked. Anyway, I thought it looked pretty good, so I thought I would share it with you. It is a digiscoped image of an eastern kingbird taken through a Nikon spotting scope. Kingbirds are often seen perched on wires and fence posts in open country. Apparently their numbers are declining, so they are a bird of interest.

Hello Gary,
What a brilliant capture of the Eastern Kingbird. I like the turned head, the sharp focus on the eye and the sharp details. Lovely colours too and well composed.
TFS and regards, Ulla

Crystal clear image Gary,
Great pose and the colors are gorgeous. The blue sky with just a hint of clouds as a BG is perfect for this angle.
Well done!!

Hi Gary,

Beautiful shot of this bird I have never seen for real. I love everything about this Kingbird picture - wonderful pose, beautiful face, wings and plummage, excellent colors, a fantastic eye. He looks so well groomed - every feather is in place. Beautiful sky for a background and a wonderful diagonal composition.

Hi Gary!

Razor sharp, super clear shot! Perfectly composed and with great blue sky BG. Great work!

This is an interesting bird...new to me. You have so much more bird diversity in the east. The diagonal line is nice and is the pose against the sky. Exposure is perfect.
