Hello Ken,
This is a wonderful bird portrait with excellent details and lightning. I like this low POV and exposure. Composition is really good with this nice BG that let us see this so delicious “holly berry". Well done and thanks,
Claudine

Hello Ken,
So clear and sharp this portrait of the mockinbird...
It's so enjoyable all the visual information displayed of the feathers, beak and eye, thanks to the very appopiate use of POV.
I like the composition, eye contact, colors, DOF.

Hi Ken,

What a beautiful shot of the Mocking Bird, very nice detail and wonderful natural colours, I like the Blue Sky BG a lot with the Holly Berry part of the BG (I wonder how long that lasted once the bird spotted it). Wonderful composition and a great pose too.

TFS Hilary :o)

I agree with the others who noted the clarity and sharpness of this photo. Wonderful point of view - very cooperative birdie! :)
Artistically, you captured the regal nature of our State Bird.
(side note: The other day I was running and thought I heard a cell phone ringing. It was a mockingbird imitating our technology! Pretty amazing.)
