From what I understand this little guy was 3-4 weeks old at the time this image was made. He just finished foraging for his breakfast in some wet grass.

PP in Lightroom w/ some foreground clean-up in PS.

Cute little guy, I like the light, angle, and sharpness. I would give it a bit more room at the bottom for the 'virtual feet'.

[Fabs Forns]

Totally cuteness alert material.
Agree with Axel's comments and love the wet plumage.

[Don Lacy]

Nice looking little guy, the wet feathers is a nice touch and adds to the cuteness

Beautiful image, I had no idea they were called colts.... and look at those knees!!! Agree with more space @ the bottom.
