Hi Christopher,
A sweet little bird. I really like the perch and the great view of the feet. Nice angles going on.
Perfect head angle. Very endearing.
Good BG.
I think I would brighten the image a bit and I think you can get a bit more fine detail in the plumage ( do you have Detail Extractor?)
Gail
Nice image overall Chris.
I like everything about it but agree that you may be able to get more detail in the whites on the head.
I think Gail is on to something, but what a sweet photo of a sweet bird. Love the pose with perfect head angle, perch, BG.
Nice pose with a perfect head angle, Chris.
Beautiful bird, perch, BKGR, light, & perfect head angle and pose. My only wish is that it was on the tippy top of the perch. Was the bird attracted in any way or did you just walk up to it? IQ looks great too.

Cute, well exposed bird with a perfect HA. I love the rock perch and that both feet are showing. Green bg is clean and nice.
Thankyou for looking and comments,Arthur,I just crept up to it,a lot of these birds have arrived back here in the northwest,I was in my local disused quarry,looking to see if the wheatear's have come back,when I got the chance to take this image.thanks again everybody,Gail,it has lost a touch of detail on the upload.
Hi Chris, great eye level capture of this wagtail, and overall well exposed. I do like the pose, and the BG is sweet and smooth.
I agree with the above comments. Nice head angle, wonderful pose, perch and BG. But i wish me a little bit more details in the plumage, too.
