Beautiful!
Wow, beautiful composition sharp as a tack and the bokeh is perfect. The detail in the feathers and eye off the chart good. Thanks for posting the settings!

Best photo
Paul, you always take amazing photos. I work in Meredith and round this time of year start looking for the Cedar Waxwings on the berry-producing trees in front of Camp Restaurant. When I see one, I always remember your photography.

About three days ago in Waterville Valley, there was one single bird that looked very much like the bird in the photo eating berries out of a large bush, about six feet up, and it pretty much totally ignored me when I walked within about ten feet of it while still on the sidewalk. It was cold out too, maybe ten degrees at the time at about 11-am.
It looked like an exotic birdie that had a decorative, all made up face .....seemed a little unusual to see it out in the intense cold there..... all relaxed and eating the red berries off the big ornamental shrub tree.
