Puffin
I was having a look through some old files from a couple of years ago and found this one I'd missed from a stay on the island of Skomer in Wales. Taken on old gear now so would be better IQ nowadays, but hopefully the pose rescues things a bit.

Mike old gear maybe but there is not a lot wrong with this as far as I can see,blacks and whites looks good and plenty of detail,that's a great calling pose.

Lovely pose from this Puffin, the colours are amazing.
Well exposed and nice detail, I would be tempted to crop a wee bit tighter if this were mine - I think the IQ is great and would handle it, it would also help create a cleaner BG.
A very pleasing image, Mike - thank you for sharing.
Kind regards,

agree with above comments on great exposure and beautiful colours
IQ is top notch and the beak and yellow inner mouth really draw in the attention
