Difficult to get a shot of these in my neck of the woods. Lovely pose and eye. Just a week bit tight in the frame and perhaps a little on the bright side (my local ones look a bit darker).

Agree with Ian on the little nits but a very detailed shot which i like.

I agree about the 'lightness', but it's a lovely image. You got really close by the looks!

Nits covered. Could do with a bit more space to the LHS.

I agree with Robert about the need for a bit more space on the LHS, but that is easily sorted.
