Another one of my sunset birds from Saturday.
This Mourning Dove was sifting through the spill over from the seed feeders. The pre-sunset light and light shade brought out subtle colors without washing them out like bright sun would. I used LR to boost them just a tad. This bird was only about 6-7 feet from my blind.
80D, 100-400L mk II @ 200, 1/160 @ f/7.1, ISO 1000 hand held
I took some of hummers today with the sunset back lighting them and high speed sync flash as a fill light. I will be working on them later tonight or tomorrow and posting after that.

A gorgeous portrait, Jerry.
Beautiful color and feather detail in your portrait of this pretty dove, Jerry!

Beautiful portrait, Jerry! I call doves..little jewels because of their sparkle in the light.
