Nice clean and simple shot, everything just as it should be. Very nice.

About “Taken at a well known RSPB spot”, not everyone who reads this thread will know where you are, and all the others will assume its Bempton, and they could easily be wrong, I can think of quite a few sites where this shot is possible. Sorry, one of my soap boxes, no offence meant.

Excellent shot Phil. I like the viewpoint and there's no shortage of detail in those wings.
