I've not had chance recently to post on here but have still been taking pictures whenever I get chance.
I came across this Oystercatcher on the Yorkshire moor's by chance while trying to find a partridge I have seen. I quickly got down low and was able to get a few shots before it moved away.

Nice profile, job work on the blacks and whites, and nice BG. I'd be tempted to add a point or two of reds to the colour balance to warm it up, and perhaps take care of the twigs at right edge. I'm OK with the FG covering the feet because it is rather soft due to the shallow dof.
