A Common grackle, showing his iridescence in the right light.
D7000, 300 f/4 AF-S + 1.4TC, hand-held, through a window, ISO 1000, 1/800 f/7.1.
Moderate crop, some canvas extended on the left, levels, usm, bg blur.
Thanks for looking,
Richard

cool iridescent blacks and nice pose, it looks a bit soft to me and wish for a natural perch

The iridescence is beautifully rendered and I like the crouching pose, but there might be a bit too much noise on the wing feathers for my taste.

Real nice shot. Wonderful colors in the bird and great pose.
Well done.

Hi Richard! I really like the iridescence that you captured, one rarely sees that bronze color. Maybe shooting thru glass has softened the image a bit.
