Wonderful image, John. Excellent soft light and good detail on this cutie. Great to see most of the long tail, and like how well the rosy-pink breast feathers stand out.

Thanks guys- IQ not up to standard but its a big crop and 1000 ISO so can't grumble.. It has been published once so it does show that IQ is,not always the end of the world.

I,m quite happy doing the common stuff around the house and I,ve got a heck of a backlog to fall back on. I never get tired of birds like this anyway. I just wish I;d had the gear I have now in the old days !! Crikey ! the stuff I could have had.
Thanks again.

This is such a pleasing image!!! Love all of the leaves, esp the ones the bird is perched on.
