This is a great shot of a bird, and yes it is backlight, but the lighting is not essential for the shot IMHO. Well, perhaps it is, but it's not very clear.

Good Picture, sharp, but would prefer a little bit more light behind the subject, as this is what the competition is about, excellent photo tho!
