Challenge: Cliche with an edge or twist. (Standard Editing)
Camera: Nikon D7000

Aperture: 9.5
ISO: 640
Shutter: 1/125

 2000mm 8" Meade & D7000 Nikon. Shot at dusk from about 100 yards.
I know it's grainy, but that's just the way mirror lenses work at near their closest focus range. The pastel softness is ok with me.
The peach color is a house about 1/4 mile behind the bird.
Here's the same scene with a Canon SX510 with 720mm equivalent lens.

Perfect. Good storytelling, much better than the normal pin-sharp 20m shot.

For some reason extreme crop with motion blur creates a pleasing effect.

A little lack of sharpness, but for your composition I give 7
