Fieldfare
At long last I've managed to get close enough for a reasonable shot.

Nice shot Paul, Don't be tempted to clone out branches or anything.(i.e the one behind it's head)

What a nice capture its the birds environment and illustrated so well in your photograph. I agree with Brian I don't profess to understand the need to clone bits out. It then becomes a false impression.

Don’t normally like subject going away from the viewer, but in this case it works, and works well.

An excellent shot, showing the fieldfare superbly in its habitat. Nice one.

Nice shot Paul, i'd say it's more than reasonable, i'd be well pleased with this.

Very nice Paul, shows off their colouration well. Twiggy is where these guys live so no problems with the setting :smile:
