Busy birdie

Please give your comments, suggestions and critiques.

Ok, but could be improved. 1) Really can't see the bird's eye. 2) The bird is too centered. Try cropping out some on the right side.

Very pleasing shot, Engela. It's totally natural in every way. Excellent work. max, my friend. Regards, LAwrence.

 

Engela, I really do like this photo. I'd love to know what the bird is, it's really pretty. The nest is awesome, REALLY intricate weaving when viewed larger. The colors of the shot are also vivid without being overly saturated and I like your choice for the border.

 

 

I agree that it could be cropped a little tighter but it's still a VERY nice photo.

 

 

God Bless ;o)

 

Thank you very much for the nice comments. This is a Yellow Weaver. It is distinguished from other golden weavers by the red eyes and the chestnut color on the face and neck. They are quite common in South Africa and like building nests near water. This particular image was taken from quite far away, because the bird build his nest "in" the water. Rgds, Engela
