Great title and photo Charlie. Love photos where there is that element of emotion we humans can relate to, even if the youngster might be picking of a parasite. :biggrin:

Off the scale cuteness factor, Charlie. Oozes anthropomorphism. A future Father's Day card? Excellent techs, sweet light and color palette.

Very cute moment, Charlie. Having just photographed these for the first time, perched on several fence posts, I can appreciate the more natural perch you found.

Charlie,
This is just over the top good. Tack sharp, great colors and the interaction is awesome. I even like the mutes on the rocks face. The backdrop is incredible and the lighting appears to be really good. What the heck is not to like about this image??? Superb.
