Beautiful bird, nicely exposed, and with plenty of space on the right for it to look into. The only thing I might be tempted to do would be to clone out that stone below/right of the subject. Great shot, and I hope you will show us some more.

A attractive little bird. I can only echo David's comments re the stone, it is a bit intrusive. otherwise it looks fine to me. eric

It is certainly better with the stone removed, Keith. I am now going to be really picky and say that we need to see a little more of the toe on the right hand side - it appears to end too abruptly.
You can never please some people can you?

Super bird Keith - excellent exposure, it reminds me a little of our Kentish Plover.
