I went back to Oare Marshes in Kent to see if I could find anything to photograph. This meadow pipit was in exactly the same place as the bird that was shown in my last posting but one, and for all I know is the same individual. I did think about cloning out a few blades of grass on the right, but eventually decided I like it the way it is.

Nikon D200, 600mm AFS + 1.4x Sigma converter
1/320th, f5.6 @ 320asa. Crop about 75% of original.

Thanks for looking

Looks good to me. Not sure about too bright but maybe a little reduction in contrast might be good.
Cheers

Brightness and contrast look spot on at this end.
A good image with a good alert pose.
