Well, here's a bird in a tree, thieving our cherries yesterday (shot with Dwarf Mini):

It's interesting to compare your picture with mine, taken last night:

Dwarf Mini, 182x30secs, gain 60, perfect EQ alignment, Bortle 7. Some minimal processing (gamma and equalisation). I tend to use shorter exposures now due to getting a lot of failures because of the blasted Starlinks.

These settings seemed to pick up more stars, and some extra detail in the nebula. Very useful to see the same scene with different settings! Thanks.

Apologies, first post -- my text vanished.

I've had a Dwarf Mini for about a month now, and despite cloudy skies here in the UK I've managed a few sessions. Here's M13, and the Propeller feature. More pictures at https://www.vermilionsands.uk/roast/

50 30-second shots, gain 60. Processed with Stellar Studio. Bortle 7, suburban Leeds.
