    I managed to capture this Red Grouse, in amongst the heather, at Glen Quaich, Perthshire this morning.

    Thanks for looking.

    Thats a cracker! The BG is as good as the bird- beautifully framed. Has to be about the best grouse head shot I,ve seen.Good stuff

    Well done William, You managed good framing with the Heather yet not obstructing the Grouse . A good looking background and pleasing colors throughout.

    Great effort, shows him perfectly in his natural environment. A really nice shot that has had me reaching for the whisky (just not the grouse version!)

    Nice one, Will! Great colours and I really like the way the heather frames the bird. Image quality looks very good to.
