No snow up my way/midlands Major and heard Norfolk is covered

the snow brings out the lovely colours of this red legged, and looks great Major

The snow certainly does bring out the best in the plumage of this bird. My only nit is that it doesn't appear to be in a pear tree

Colours really pop against that snow!

envious of your snow, looked quite promising here in London on Thursday night didn't amount to much in the end though,

good detail and as said snow really brings out the colours here, great shot all round

Nice, the snow creates a great frame for the Partridge.... I would prefer it a little smaller in the frame with more to the right and below but that really is a personal thing..

Agree about the crop but lovely detail Major. Colours really stand out.

Excellent Major, I don't have a problem with the crop at all, any lower and the vrtual feet would be cut off; great colours too.
