A cracking close up Karen. Not a bird I have seen a lot of either, well captured. :toast: :jump:

Beautiful bird Karen - could take some more sharpening I think though, especially around the eye ?

Very nice bird, agree with Grahams comment on the sharpening.

Nicely composed and well caught against a diffuse background. Nits covered.

Hi Karen,

Nits covered, but a very nice shot of one of my favourite species! :biggrin:

Cheers.
