Really nice, .Love the raised leg and the surroundings with the heather? is just perfect. Exposure looks great but the birds head just appears a little soft on my screen.
Killer setting, bird, and wingstretch. Strangely the front end of the bird looks as is there were some motion blur.
Barrow?

Great capture! Love the colours. Yeah, the front of the bird looks a bit soft. I think the focus was probably on the belly?
Beautiful setting Alan I've only ever seen them on the beach. I like the raised foot and great wing detail too
What a colorful frame...beautiful composition and lovely exposure.
Love the pose with stretched wing and leg,superb colors and details.
