Was hoping for large fluffy snow flakes but I think this works.
Taken from car during a rather heavy snow shower at one point it was so heavy I could'nt see the bird.
That's a stunner Craig. The bird and berries positively glow against the surroundings. The falling snow adds an extra dimension too.
Personally I'd crop a fraction off the bottom, just enough to exclude the whole of the green bit at the bottom. I think you'll still be left with ample room without getting the bottom edge too close to the berries.

This is a beautiful shot Craig. The berries and lichen add colours and the fieldfare looks great

The isolated Berries + green Lichen realy compliment the bird nicely. The snow an added bonus.
