a very attractive background Maggie and a nicely taken shot. The perch is perhaps a little heavy for the bird and a slight shame its tail cuts across the perch but still one I'd be pleased with :smile:

Very,very nice indeed, Maggie. Almost, but not quite, tempted to take up bird photography on viewing this. :smile: :wink:

Ok - but to be honest - the perch takes over. The bird could do to be left a bit too,
Sorry darling !

Hi Maggie, Nice image overall but for the nits mentioned. I also find my eye drawn to the hanging bark(?) under the tip of the tail..

You got to love John's direct approach to getting things right..! :biggrin:

Dainty perches for dainty birds Maggie - Squeaks got no finesse so take no notice of him :biggrin: :biggrin:

I'm always banging on about your BG's so nicely done :toast:

So you're there too Saturday - hope all your 'kit' has quick release buckles :biggrin: :jump:

Thank you Maggie ,ignore that Andy A ,uncouth sexual inuendo touting heathen he is .
:biggrin:
Lots of wonderful tits about on Saturday , yours included ....here ...

Much much better than the last upload , agree about the dark stringy bit,it needs to go .
Lovely catchlight and just enough prominance from the bird to lift its tail from the branch .
Nice comp and image ...
I hope the weather holds for next week .

Perch and dissapearing tail spoil it for me Maggie.

Thanks all for your C&C. Why is it you don't see something until its pointed out and then its so obvious :rolleyes:
John thank you I would very much like to take you up on your offer (in a photographic sense). :biggrin: I know Kim lives in Cheshire but have no idea where you are.
Andy rest assured all my buckles will be fitted with combination locks :wink: :biggrin:
Mark I will speak to you on Saturday :redface: :biggrin:
