Hi Philip,
A nice shot of the bird in it's typical surroundings.Good job on including the whole of the bunch of berries the bird is standing on.
Perhaps just a little more room at the top of the frame would be beneficial.

I agree with Justin I would prefer it lower in the frame. But alot better than my only photo of a fieldfare.

I might take out the berries in the top left hand corner but apart from that a very nice clean image :toast:

Fine image, maybe just a little tight to the top of the frame, but great capture nonetheless.

Another great image Phillip esp of a bird that is very wary, a touch more space at the top for me as well but that is personal....

Hi all thank you for your comments, I do have this one I didn't choose it because of the tale as there is a out of focus branch blowing around in front of it this is the full frame my original image has a small amount cropped off the right-hand side.

All the best.

Phillip.
