Touch saturated John to be honest, spray and pray?

Thanks both.
Neil-thanks for that . I haven't done anything in that respect so it must be the white balance setting. I'll have a play.
Cheers

Greens do look a little saturated JR but it is a great image. Its funny but Starlings are very uncommon here so this for me is an uncommon species so TFS! However did see a White-tailed Sea Eagle this morning cruising over Loch Linnhe so have no room to complain other than the flippin' camera was safely stowed in my flippin' rucksack!

Stange but with all the rain , as you know everything - especially grass has grown beyond all normal expectations and looks extreemely lush every where. Trouble is - in good light , fresh grass does look bright and green. Problem to know what to do.
Checked the blacks and whites and in fact the dropper shows tthe greens as low !. Any way I like things pretty

I think web compression and picture size also makes some colours appear more saturated. I know I often prepare an image for web and end up de-saturating the greens or light browns. The joys of digital!
