Nice shot. Interesting composition. Maybe the image could benefit from a boost in the midtones?

That's a brave bird! Did you see him take off, or is he pinned there?

I, too, do not understand how they don't impale themselves. Nice image.

Thank you, jederick:
A very limited number of folks msy call him Campylorhynchus brunneicapillus. But he's clearly a wren and cactus, the spikier the better, is plays a role in every aspect of his life. He's also Arizona's State Bird and the largest North American Wren...

Thanks, Carol:
Cactus Wrens get lots of practice. The nests they're born in are built in and protected by cactus. They utilize it daily throughout their lives.
