I have been trying to get a good clear shot of this guy for three weeks but they are very skittish and won't let me get close


Brown Thrasher.
1/200 at f/8.0 ISO 500
This was shot 30 minutes before sunset and I had to do a bit of editing to get this. I shot about 1 stop overexposed which didn't help
