You work it well Tim.
Weather has been awful of course, but perhaps because of that we start to look at subjects we might over look.
I mean just look at that foot. Some people would be fasinated by it I am sure.
What is it a size 16 or what. :toast:

Nice one, Tim and a good example on how these birds live.
For me, though, the shot is a bit too busy and the bird lost in the multitude of leaves.
Just my personal feelings though.

I can see what Paula's saying but I have only seen these in this type of environment, so for me it's fine. Processing and colour look great :toast:
