Excellent shot Mark. Sharp, good colour and a nice angle on the face.

I have to agree, it's keeper for all the right reasons Mark. You've captured the story and intensity of the bird's focus perfectly. Stunning photo!

Beautiful shot Mark. Love the color contrast between the foreground foliage and the bird.

Thanks all, a nice sight when I returned home, and all my liitle birds were safe...
