A Rock Pipit not very happy that a Cuckoo has moved into the neighbourhood. It’s a bit of a crop and the quality not that good but I thought I would share it with you, back to the same location tomorrow fingers crossed. Taken on Mull.

This is great! Fantastic interaction.

Could it be a Meadow Pipit?

Looking forward to more :toast:

I love it. Shots with interaction like this really connect. Looks good enough quality and I like the colour scheme too.

May not be technically perfect John, but it's wildlife photography at it's best!

Nothing I can add except to say that it is my idea of a perfect wildlife photograph.

Tremendous behavioural shot. Have seen a couple of Cuckoos recently but never got close enough to get a shot. Well done for getting it and the Rock Pipit is a bonus. :toast:
