    Nice that you got it below the quasi-horizon line but it is too dark overall and the sign was bad luck. The bird itself seems to be lacking detail, that from someone who rarely sees or mentions a lack of detail when others do ...

    For me this wasn't about the bird, which I agree lacks detail, but about the humorous juxtaposition of bird and sign. Maybe only humorous for me.

    Hello Bill,
    I like the sign with the bird - brings up a smile

    Regards,

    Yes, I can understand this image as well. Reminds me of when I captured a Kingfisher perched on a No Fishing sign TFS
