Great complementarity between the bird and the shape of the perch and super detail.

Classic Nuthatch shot, Guy. I echo DB 's comment on how the snowy perch almost mirrors the pose of the Nutty.

A great Nuthatch image Guy :smile:
It's posing beautifully for you and the bird looks in really good condition too.
Well done.

Guy, you captured a wonderful pose here! Fine detail, colors, and the perch and snow are perfect.

I love the subtle colours and textures in this one - very different to the usual nuthatch shots.
