Hi Simon,
Excellent image. Very nice light with good details. I like the surroundings you have captured and that smooth background, well done.

Beautiful head trun Simon. Love the perch and the background is very pleasing. Details look good and a very nice catchlight in the eyes. Nice Simon.

Excellent Simon, good light and and a clear view to the bird, way better than anything I got when I was up there.
