Managed to get a bit closer to one of the SEOs spending the winter not too far from me on Saturday and got a few shots I'm quite happy with. No sign of it this morning though!
40D + 500mm, ISO 800 and f7.1 for 1/500
Tripod
About 70% of original frame - cropped for comp. One prominent stem cloned out of the foreground
All comments welcome

Many thanks for all the comments, much appreciated.
As I approach 1 year on here for me this shot sums up quite a lot of how much this forum has helped me develop (no pun intended!) my photography over the last year. I have to say thanks for all the images that have been shared and the critiques given on mine and others that have been instructional and inspiring.
