    Taken here in Portugal this Egret seems to like his wooly perch a great deal and gave me the opportunity for tgis fun frame.

    Interesting perch, probably very soft on the little toes. Might be able to get a little more detail out of the Egret.

    Very nice storytelling image Richard. I bet that wool does feel good against the feet.

    I could have used some wool against my feet in Canada's sub-freezing temps last week! Love the story here, Richard. It brought a smile to my face.

    Hi Richard, I feel you have exposed the egret well, and DOF on the overall image. I wish the egret had turned his head a little more towards you.

    hehehehe.....I've seen Blackbirds, Starlings and little Wagtails do this, but never something the size of an Egret, I do hope it had the common decency not to poop on the sheep as well
