This is really great! I love the colour the bird and the berries give to the general soft brown of the entire picture. And the pose - just perfect!

That's because he can't fly after eating all your good cherries.... :-)
Too bad my two cherry trees only grow flowers.... :-(

This is a beautiful shot MAry, I just can't seem to get close enough, I am hoping once there are some leaves they will be more comfortable "posing " for me too.

Beautiful may not be the right word to discribe your photo. I need a word better than beautiful to describe it, I am still thinking what the right word should be .......... May be I should use very very.... beautiful.

They really are strikingly beautiful birds (I don't see many ... in fact, can't remember the last time I did see a bluebird [in person] ... I suppose they prefer a more bucolic lifestyle than my urban choice) and you've photographed him (?) splendidly with last year's crabapples adorning his setting ... you are a master of the 400mm, Mary ... ron
