Set up my new feeding station yesterday, see how long it takes before this one gets smashed up!!!!

Thanks for looking

Hi Andy, it's a nice pose, and the background is lovely and smooth. My main nit is that it seems a bit soft round the head area, and I'm not too keen on the sawn off branch as it looks a bit unnatural.

I agree with Daniel, The perch could be better and the bird is slightly soft and looking away-Good exposure and background

Hi Andy,

All the nits have been covered , but still a nice shot with a super BG.

As said slightly soft, I like to see delicate perches for deicate birds so a change of perch is needed...

You have highlighted one of the reasons I do not bother with a permanent station any more....
