[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The wood pigeon is a common species in Ireland. It lives in parks and woods and feeds on various berries and seeds.
The bird in the picture is wild. I took the shot on a cold but sunny day and it was soaking up the sun. I think that is why it allowed me to get this close.

Hi Catalin,
Your pigeon sitting there resting on his branch so at ease and at peace caught my atttention and made me stop by. I think you've produced a very good picture and I like it but could not resist to try ameliorating it a bit through the possibilities of some PhotoShop enhancement. Hope you don't mind...that's part of the TN games. Thanks a lot for sharing the shot and providing it with an ID,
Goran
