Masked Weaver

hiding in a fever tree. They are in and out so fast, I am surprised that they don't get hurt on the thorns which are razor sharp.

Such a lovely colour and capture.

Beautiful bird and great capture. I think it is their basic instant to avoid the sharp thorns.

[Valerie Chesney]

Super capture, those thorns are enormous!

[Steve Chappell]

Beautiful capture

[Pam]

Wow. They are cleaver to hang out in the thorns. I wonder if they ever get impaled. Beautiful shot.

[Mickey Anderson]

What a beauty!!

[Mags]

Marvelous capture with your DOF.

This is a beautifully composed photo. He looks gorgeous with that yellow in the background

[Kartia]

Ditto about the colour composition! Perfect.

[Merrelyn]

The background is the perfect colour for him.

[Elyse Klemchuk]

He's beautiful! I will show this to my dad- he enjoys looking at the birds outside his window.

[LManning (Laura)]

A brave bird! Lovely capture.

[Maria]

Wonderful bird and colors!

[KV]

Love, love, love this. Perfect soft DOF to make a lovely background for this gorgeous bird.

[Iris N]

love the yellow dancing through the photo

[gloria jones]

Love that the background colors match the bird's feathers

[KoalaGardens🐨]

what perfect blend of tones!

[Elisabeth Sæter]

Lovely shot

[Allison Maltese]

This is wonderful. I love all of the yellows and the great framing.

[Kate]

Great composition

[Julie Ryan]

Pretty yellow everything

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Good shot- I don't know how birds do that either. I see hawks and owls fly through the woods here and wonder how they do it without hitting the tree branches.

[Jane Pittenger]

Doesn’t want to look at you..being coo

[Rick]

Great capture.

Goodness those thorns are extremely sharp! I like all the yellow in this shot

[Heather]

Such a great shot of this beautiful bird- unobstructed (no messy branches in the way) and complemented by your soft dof! As others have said, the yellows are really lovely, Diana! Big fav!
