A shame about the stray feather, as Mike says, but I do like the intimate family portrait captured here.

Thanks guys, I find the stray feather funny to me, as the grebe on it's back looks like it is using it to hang on to the back you can see the young grebes foot lifting the feather.

Great family shot there Phil. Could just be my scree at work but I would say that the eye and red/bron feathers need a bit more colour :wink:

Beautiful scene, Phil. I don't mind the feather, though I do agree with Bob re the colour.

What a lovely family scene! I quite like the feather as it adds to the story especially as the youngster is hanging onto it! :wink:
