Spring Dawn: White-eye on Blossom Branch

A photorealistic close-up of a small Japanese White-eye (Zosterops japonicus) perched on a slender flowering branch in full spring bloom. The bird has lime-green plumage and a distinctive white eye-ring, gazing toward the camera. The branch is heavy with white and pale pink blossoms, petals drifting in a gentle spring breeze. Soft morning light filters through fresh leaves, creating a warm, diffuse glow and creamy bokeh in the background. Capture crisp feather details, tiny dew drops on petals, and the fresh vitality of spring with a naturalist color palette emphasizing greens, pinks, and hints of sky-blue. Shallow depth of field, ~50mm lens equivalent, f/2.8, low ISO for a serene, airy mood.
