Overall image looks a bit dark to my eye. Also, I'd crop from the bottom and left to better position the bird in the frame. Nice head angle.
Cheers!

Youre right David!

heres a rework from raw again

Hi Richard, looks like the Willet was out for a surf. Im not sure what you did in your repost, but it seems a touch 'washed out' Im fine with the light and colours in your OP, and maybe move the willet a little more to the LLC - maybe not as much as your repost.

[Richard Unsworth]

Thats fine Stuart - these pointewrs are why I post here.
David suggested image was dark so I added brightness and went a little ott, something I can correct.
I too like the colors in OP. I will work on it again; busy atm many things to sort with upcoming relocation to the Alentejo.
