Great shot. My only nit is a curved bit in the background - It's very much OOF, but there's a 'greener' bit running above and down in front of the bird. It leaps out at me from the rest of the BG, and is a bit distracting. Should be a very simple job to sort though.

Super shot. I think the moss really sets off the bird's colours :toast:

Plenty of these fellows showing around here ATM. Saw 2 together yesterday. My problem is that they won't come down to a level where I can photograph them :frown: Or maybe I need to be a lot taller :wink:
