Taken a few day's ago,the young it is feeding have now fledged,cannon500mm IS,L,F4,7D,tripod,1/4EX,GIVING 700MMFL,iso500,1/320s,F5.6,crop,sharpened,touch of level's.
I like the harmonious palette with rock, lichen and background all working in unison to support and show off the bird. The bill full of scrumptious food lifts the level of interest and provides a nice focus of attention. Well done Chris.
Another belter Chris, lovely pose and those caterpillars are the icing on the cake. If I was being really critical I suppose I would ask for the beak to be more visible but it does not bother me personally I think it is a super shot, exposure, details and complimentary colours - couldn't really ask for more!
Chris must say I can't find a lot wrong with this, bird looks like a very true representation of the species ,nice and sharp without being over processed, great looking image.
My, my, but these little birds have quite an appetite!!!
Love the presentation and processing Chris, I have a big smile on my face looking at this image, absolutely enjoyed viewing, would love to see some more if you have!
You are getting some great wheatear images in your rock quarry.
I would sharpen the highlight in the eye a bit as I find it fools my eye into thinking the eye isn't sharp (which it is).
The OOF rock in the left FG pulls the eye away a bit and I would lighten it a or trim it down,

The choice is yours Female Wheatear
