Thats really nice, I kept trying to get a huge thrush landing on the tree right outside my window but kept missing!

Good shot. May be the lighter areas behind the bird are a little bit annoying, but that's minor.

a nice shot, although I think I would prefer to see the bird less centrally positioned. It would be nice to see a larger version (the max is 720 pixels).

Hi Graham,

Lovely capture!

Pity the head turn has put the face into a bit of shadow and agree with Matt - maybe a bit off the right and more on the left? But nice and sharp with a good background

Nice one Graham, glad to see you are back posting. Agree with the comments about position as I don't think the square crop works that well, sorry matey

You are right - I do need to sort out the posting size - I will get this right for my next mage.
