Black Headed Bunting

Shot this one form a very low level . Sorry about the hidden feet could not do much about that . There is a paddy grain in the beak of the bird.

Nice as presented, love the open beak. Low angle is great and bkgd is nice and soft. I would do some clean up and loose the white oof stick behind the bird, loose the two oof white areas in the green before the bird and loose the three white areas in the lower right corner in the red. You have to live with the stick covering the feet (that's a little more complicated to remove). Other than that great image.

nice calling pose and a good light. good details. I also vote for loosing the oof grass behind the tail
