[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This male sunbird picture was taken today near my friend's 'open bird cage'......there is a huge Jambu tree which is covered with fruit and flowers and it is protected by a massive birdhouse like structure. However there is a small gap in the gate which these smart guys have found a way to get through and they were swarming this place today...However I had to shoot through a fine wire mesh to get this shot and used the fill flash as the bird was only perching here on and off and I had to shoot against the light. Any comments welcome...

cheers,

Hi Dilshan, Good image of this colourful bird. The Crop is good making the diagonal perch a strong element. Good DOF and details of feathers is excellent. TFS. Murray.
