Birds are usually perch on trees but more often than not this WBWS likes to perch on the wires. You got a good shot there. Well done Edu.
Mabuhay.

Composition works for me. Beautiful bird ... Thank you sir. I took a gamble on a tight crop. Any wider and I would have included a lot of wayward and distracting objects. |

I agree. Excellent composition plus good details make this picture beautiful! Now that there are two top-notch photographers who agree on the crop, I guess I really did get away with it.  Thank you sir for appreciating! |

Yes sir, this particular one was actually foraging for insects, kept flying off, going in a circle then landing back to this perch. On one occasion, when it flew, I positioned myself for this shot and took it immediately. But it still stayed there for several more poses and was even joined by another woodswallow. They flew off when a golf cart passed by. |

Very good details on this close-up, Edu. Now we can call that a Woodswallow. |

Everybody already said it so I'll just add my agreement: totally like seeing a woodswallow perched on wood and not on a wire. Congrats, Edu on nailing this one.
