Hi Pam!

Another great portrait of bird! This time I like its pose and eye, but also BG looks very good.

A very nice portrait but, obviously, a "bad hair day!" I wish this lens didn't produce those strange OOF artefacts, but that's Canon's fault not yours!
Thanks, Nigel.

Pam, it looks such a weak character, no wonder their numbers are down. How lucky you were to see him. Great capture, thank you. Busy BG!

Hi Pam,
A nice portrait on this Black Stilt. Excellent colors, and sharp detail. What type of post processing if any did you do to the backround? It has a very interesting effect.

Hello Pam!

Do you know how sometimes, when you look at a photo, you get a sense or feeling that you can't explain?

This one made me feel protective, as the look in its eye and posture, seems vulnerable and sweet.

Which somehow seems appropriate as they are endangered.

Great portrait, details, lighting, POV and message.

Well done and thank you.
