John

As ever another spot on shot. Water drips add even more to the shot.

I think the subject proportion in frame is just right.

Not an easy subject John but nicely composed and the detail in that beautiful plumage is well caught.

Goos spot John. It stands out from the background perfectly.

Not one but two catchlights. That is just showing off !

Cheers
