Very nice Dave, shame about the artificial perch but I would be more than happy to have taken a pic of one of my favourite birds.. Look forward to seeing some more and I'm off to your blog to check them out..

Hello Dave.

Nice capture.

The way you have caught this makes me feel they are playing target practice with that mark on the bottom ones back.

Ouch! Great action shot with good detail and background. You't just have to climb up and put up a natural perch now :wink:
