Posted by Tracey (Maryland, United States) on 26 June 2008 in Animal & Insect and Portfolio.

I sat hiding behind a bush for 20 minutes waiting for the skittish wren to make an appearance!

Great shot - the composition is perfect (but I guess you had time to think about that, sitting in the bush). Patience pays off!! Nice shot!

Your title is too cute; made me laugh. The image is gorgeous. What beautiful tones and wouldn't it be wonderful to live in such a lovely house?

Super! This is a real "down home" kind of photo. It has lots of visual appeal; you caught that wren in a great pose.

That is beautiful! Aren't wrens funny, I had a couple in my yard and never could get close to them. Then on vacation the one I shot just flew up and landed right by me and posed. Crazy birds.

Beautiful Tracey!

Fabulous, Tracey! This is done in your typical style. It has an almost luminous look to it, due to the light, colours and excellent processing.
