Nice pose and portrait with bird not familiar with.
Like the colorful perch and background.
"Scruffy" bird appearance compatible with juvenile status-adult must be a dazzler !

Lovely image Dumay, really like the perch and a superb comp. I also love the BKGD :cheers::cheers:

Hi Dumay,

Nice image of this youngster. Lovely exposure and light with the colours spot on. Like the diagonal perch and eye contact.

[Jonathan Ashton]

Beautiful image quality, detail and colours excellent. Just a personal issue for me, I find the bird just a little too large in the frame.

[Dave McGowen]

Looks well exposed and nice detail in the feathers. I like the placement of the bird in the frame. Nice!

[James Salywoda]

Excellent pose and composition Dumay very nicely done.

[Craig Brelsford]

Great shot of a confiding stonechat. 4.2 m! I find the image just a tad too bright.
