That is a superb image. It's great to see the subject doing something and you have caught the preening action brilliantly. Nice one.

Absolutely superb Brian.

Fantastic detail, spot on colours, plus, as Rob has said, the action of preening is perfect. Extremely well executed. Have enjoyed viewing this one.

Great pose and wonderful detail - just that bit different to many others (not that I have any of either sort!).
