    An interesting preening pose, Lorant, but I think I like #2 better.

    What an unusual preening position you captured here Lorant, the eye-level perspective is terrific... nicely done. :-)

    Lovely image, Lorant. I am amazed how low you get, wonderful POV. Ohhhh, to be young again. Thank you for sharing.

    This is a really fun and unusual preening pose. The BG works nicely. I like seeing the breeding colors on the bird. Your low angle really paid off, and glad I can see the catch light.
