Hi Phil,

  Beautiful image with wonderful colors, details & background.  Take care, Patsy

Thanks for your viewing and kind comment.  I'm fortunate to have a water feature about 20 feet from the window of my study that is an attraction for our backyard birds. Thanks again, Phill

Great color, wish we had these birds... Mike

Thanks for viewing and comment.  This is the first Western Tanager I've seen this year.  As I mentioned above, I'm probably the laziest bird photographer in the world.My Nikon D7100 with the Nikon 80-400 mm sits on a file cabinet behind me, and I periodically check out the window looking for interesting backyard birds around our water feature.  Thanks again, Phil

What a pretty Bird - Nicely captured. I would prefer it to be a tad darker but that is a personal choice.

I hear bird photographers have lots of patience so this must be one of your virtues to get this very good one.

I think it's better somewhat darker.  I'm not sure patience is one of my virtues-I'll have to ask my wife, she may know of one.  Thanks, Phil
