Nice isolation of thos bird with the environment, well done Yves

Yves Langlois

Thank you Clifford. That bird has no colours but he is a master signer. That bird spend his time replicating the sound of almost anyting he hears.

Heather Mellon

The background sky and red sumac accentuate the catbird so well here and you framed him perfectly. Very nicely done, Yves.

Yves Langlois

Agree with you Heather. That bird has no colours to show off so you need a colourful surrounding to compensate..

Jane LeBlanc

Yes, lovely framing of the bird, Yves. Great timing.

Yves Langlois

Thanks Jane. I guess I had a little help from Mother Nature on that one.

Debra Plett

Very artistic framing Yves. The sumac really stands out nicely against the blue sky. Nice sharp focus on the bird with a catchlight in the eye. Super shot Yves

Yves Langlois

Thank you very much Debra. The guy was deep behind branches. I had to move to find a good spot. Finaly found that triangle spot with a clear view on the bird. A quick shot before he moves.
