Another one from the cold,misty morning at the Glen.

Thanks for looking and commenting on the BHG. Much appreciated.

Lovely setting and pose. I guess it is the mist but I feel there is a tad of detail missing in the plumage, maybe a little more sharpening??
My only criticism is the feet are not visible but I know only too well how difficult it can be to get the birds to pose in the right place on the right rock!

Thanks for that Jon :S3: I have sharpened the bird a wee bit

Nice calling pose captured, Will. Jon was right it needed a little more sharpening.
Now it looks really nice.

Repost is excellent.
This environment really "feels" like Scotland. I echo Jonathan's critique,

Loving your grouse. The repost is nice and the mood of this image gives a sense of place. Well done.

Hi Will, lovely framing and I like the pose, in mid call. Agree with Jon about the missing feet, a crying shame, but better luck next time. I might have tried f/4 as it's so side on.
