Taken today from the car on private site.
Group of these shot across infront of me, so pulled over and sat and waited. Out of the Sugar Beet they came and all sat in a group.
Difficult to get all of them in together so waited even longer for them to move about a bit.
Managed to isolate two together.
Great light that lasted about five minutes before it went really black.
No crop. Levels etc in PS.

Did you hire these two from a model agency?! Very nice shot

Very nice shot of a difficult species to get close to.
I like it and feel the portrait format was a very good choice here.
I quite like the 'flowery' setting,which IMO adds an extra something to the overall image.
Also like the way one of the birds is looking towards the other.

Hi Major
What a couple of posers, I really like the shot of the birds - it is so good I feel its a shame the BG is quite so busy and detracts a little from a really good image!
