[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is a whinchat shot on Lesvos in April, I was surprised to find they already had fledgeling young flapping around early april. Here in the netherlands sadly I see them less and less. I like the contrast between the flyffy bird and the barbed wire, and the focused bird vs the oof background

Hallo Jeroen,
Niet elk vogeltje zit op een takje. Prachtige foto met grote scherpte en mooie bij elkaar passende kleuren, zeker ook in de achtergrond.
Vanuit een erg goed standpunt genomen en erg goede compositie. Dat je hem zo dichtbij kon nemen!
Groet,
Peter

Excellent detail. Perfect DOF and beautyfull colours.
Congratulations for gear too.

Hi Jeroen. This is a first class close up of this beautiful bird. Your side view shows the feathers markings and colours so well. The detail is spot on . Your use of thelight has given such natural looking colours. I am going to put this in my favorites. Very well done TFS.
Nick..

Nice and a pleasant picture to watch , i have seen lots of birds on the barbed fence but never shoot them as the fence adds a touch of un-natural to it. But you have done a good job to shoot this so wonderfully, i love the catch light in its eyes and the exposure is perfect

Hi Jeroen
Nice capture.
Great details and great clarity.
Congratulations!
