Joe,
Now this is a rarity for me, hard to believe they originally came from Dartford Heath, where I was forced to run cross-country a very long time ago.
Great capture:cheers:
Thanks Ken, the UK numbers of these Warblers fell to about a dozen pairs in the 60's, two harsh Winters being the cause, today's population is estimated at just over 3,000.
Hello Joe, Beautiful Image...IQ looks great...sharpness, exposure, BG, Perch and Pose are all great....I might leave slightly more space at top, bottom and to our left if it was mine (I wish :S3:)
What a beautiful bird! TFS

Cool looking little bird, really sharp with a fine perch. A little smaller in the frame would have worked better.

I would usually say that is it not a good idea to be distracted for a grab shot but this is worth lots of kestrels. Beautiful bird and perch and background in great light.
Great grab, mind boggles as to what you had got with time to play

Magnificent image with great lights.Love the pose,colors and details on this beautiful cute bird.
Thank you all, for the very welcome feedback, I chose this particular crop to show off the great looking eye on these birds, there's plenty room in the original to play with :w3
