Lovely, great eye contact. The blue eye and wing patch really stands out. Nice composition too.

I think this is a cracking shot, heart sank, when I read this was full frame as I feel that it is slightly high in the frame, and would like more at the top but leave the bottom as is.

Sometimes it does come together, as here, a truly excellent shot.

Nice shot Jack, like the perch, good job on capturing a very weary species.
