Hi Tim,
Very nice! Shows of the colour and feather detail very well. Flying into the frame and good eye contact. A job well done, really!!!!

Cheers,
Roy

Hi Graeme,
I took this at Harewood, West Yorkshire. There's a good number of these now, its also good for Hare's as the name implies and other goodies like Fallow and Red Deer.

Hello Tim
I particularly like the view from on top of the bird in this shot, and the colour and detail are spot on.
Best wishes

A great flight shot Tim, nice to see the top of the bird, may be me and an early morning but perhaps a shade more contrast?
