A comical image Ian just a tad tight on the left, and maybe if you don t mind a bit of cloning I would probably get rid of the bit of plant on the right but a comical pose well caught

That's not a trip. . . . he's taking a dive (must be a footballer).
Brilliant timing Ian. The catkin on right cannot be removed in my opinion as it gives a 'target' for the bird to dive into. A little close to the LHS but that is a very minor nit when you consider the overall capture.

What brilliant timing, a really different image.
