An intimate view Keith and nicely detailed. It looks as if the light was pretty harsh and you've done well not to blow any yellow and white.

Well done Keith on getting so close to this species.

Well handled in harsh light.

Cheers

No nits re the BG Keith, agree with Austing re the harsh lighting and one more shot of a Yellow Wagtail than I have, like it.
