Certainly does look like a Whitethroat and a good clear and detailed view. The purple in the background adds a welcome splash of colour. :toast:

Nice and sharp,- and what's all the fuss about birds on sticks anyway. What are they supposed to sit on? :smile:
If they sit in a bush the background's " messy " :biggrin: :biggrin:

Hi Karen,

Nice shot and the ID is spot on. I have no problem with birds on sticks as that is what they perch on :eek:

The subject is tack sharp and the purple patches give the image a splash of colour. Nicely done.

Great shot, Karen, and if whitethroats do not perch on sticks what are they supposed to perch on?
