A lovely shot, has a bit of a somber mood to it with the muted tones and the pose looking like a rejected suitor!

Well captured Jon...I would love to get these beauties on my beach...The colours on the BG here, couldn't be better....They show the bird and the perch so well...I like the inquisitive pose.

Love the overcast setting and perch, but I think the lack of eye contact really hurts; bird look disinterested as is. It's a bummer since the techs all look good. I really like the super sharp feet.
