I love the perch on this one- slightly different, and a good backdrop.
The bird though seems a bit "harsh" mainly around the head area. A drop in contrast and maybe a bit of USM might help.
Cheers

nicely taken Lea. Good perch and background. A slight shame the tail feathers aren't more visible, but still a very nice shot.

Nice perch, background and composition Lea but the bird's colouring looks a little flat to me.

You may be right Lea, given that it's a juvenile - and I certainly don't want to get involved in any more arguments about the colouring of juvenile birds :wink: :biggrin: :wink:

Works for me Lea and if you didn't put that as a title some would say - It's a bird on a stick.. So I see your point..

Ps. Hope all is well with you..
