I love the texture of the driftwood and the blurred background which focuses your eye on the bird. Lovely

Lovely composition Yves. I am very much a fan of how driftwood or decaying wood can elevate an image. Great lighting with lots of interest. Nicely done.

He gave you a great pose and I like how well he stands out here against the textures of the log where the sun hit it just right. Nice shot, Yves.

Thanks for the nice comments Heather. I love that shot for the shape, colours and texture of the beautyful (and well lighted) roten log. For me this is more an artistic picture. I know that log for long but I was waiting for a bird or big dragonfly to complete the picture.

Description
The little sparrow was walking along the edge of the water looking for insects. Two feets in front was a nicely rotten log. I didn't expect the bird to jump on the log but I got ready for a shot. He did jumped and kept walking the log looking for food.
