Very seasonal Robert,and you don't see pics of these on berries very often ! Pity about the offending branch in front of the bird but at least its well OOF :smile: A bit of gentle burn brush would fix it if need be- no big deal.
Well done.:toast: :toast:

Nice Song Thrush shot, Robert. Berry in the beak makes for a very pleasant image. What are berries?

Andy... :wavey:

Lovely image Robert and the beery in the beak really makes the image. The OOF twig is not that obvious and until I read about it I had'nt seen it.

Andy, I'm not 100% certain but I think they are Elder. If anyone can confirm I'd be grateful. Thanks for comments.
