    Nice unusual shot Jon. Somehow one doesn't associate these guys with moss- what was the attraction?
    Cheers

    Lovely pose Jon, not seen a stonechat shot like this before!

    I'd be tempted to crop in a bit tighter, losing some off the top and the sides to retain the aspect, but leaving all that great mossy perch in on the bottom. Looks like the IQ would take it.

    Great looking frame Jon. Perfect timing, never seen a Stonechat do this before. The blurred foot gives motion to the image.
