This is one from a few weeks ago.....I had a large amount of Fieldfare on the local Sea Buckthorn berries..... My biggest problem was getting a clear shot of a bird... Got lucky a few times...HH...ACR PS 2021.

I like the details, sharpness, perch loaded with dinner and the BG perfectly compliments the bird. Well done Will.

[Paul Burdett]

Yes will...I agree with Jim. Really like the overall composition, and especially the lovely texture of the muted background. The bird is sharp, excellent eye contact and lovely details on the berries. TFS

That's another natural beauty Will, the colours of the bird are echoed in the berries, the timing of the berry picking is super - well done.

Thanks for that Gail .....I took over 1000 frames of these, along with Bullfinch...both gorging on the berries.....It took me longer to go through them all... finding the keepers ...but it was good...
