One of my favorite shots! It was pretty chilly that day and it took a long time to get the perfect perch on this little guy!

And it paid! Excellent. Well done. What species is it, a blue bird? ... the berries what are they?

Time

This was taken in late afternoon.

Lighting

I made full use of the sun this day. It was definitely in the perfect spot.

Equipment

This was taken with my Canon 60D and 200mm telephoto lens. no tripod was used i just had to stand very still and exhale when snapping the shot.

Inspiration

I am a lover of birds. They are very interesting to watch and their coloring is spectacular.

Editing

No post processing was done.

In my camera bag

I used a Canon 60D with my Canon Pro 200mm telephoto lens.

Feedback

This was definitely all about patience. You have to allow the birds to get use to you.
