Hi John,

i really like the natural colours in this shot, and the fact that he's partially obscured by the thorny branch in the foreground emphasises your note. Nice details and eye contact too.

tfs,

Paul

Very nice shot in wich I like the pose of the bird very much John.
Sharpness, clarity and exposure are great and the soft colored BG with nice green color tones is lovely.
Pity though that there's an out of focus branche in the foreground that distracts a little imho.
Best regards, Harry

Great photo of the bird with the food! nice POV and detail. :)

Hi John,
I like this image, the bird is posing nicely with its head turned. Capturing it at this very moment when it has the grub in its mouth is special. Nice colours.
Cheers,
Debbie

lovely capture of this bird i have not seen one of these you did well to get this natural shot, it must be that birds are too busy to notice the papparatzi creeping up on them.
