A BIT further than I'd be prepared to travel but well done in succeeding in getting a good image from a good pov.

Not a bird I've heard of - I assume this is something of a rarity then! A nicely taken shot, good pose and eye contact.

You travelled a long way, but nothing compared to the bird, which must have crossed the Atlantic to get its photo taken. You have caught a great pose.
