Super shot, I bet you have seen this little scenario several times and said to yourself, "one day I'll get that shot!" Well you did and boy it looks great. It's a bucket list shot if ever I saw one, one shot I always want to get is a Snipe on a stone wall or on a lovely weathered post like this.
Just looking at the legs there appears to be a hint of magenta there, I have not seen this bird - just asking, should it be there?
Jeez, almost every image I have looked at this afternoon has been gorgeous, including and especially this one.
From the car? Did you used audio?
What month?
with love, artie

I forgot to mention. The perch is great. You might want to move the bird back in the frame just a bit ... And I am pretty sure that the bird has pink legs ...

What a great capture. Wish he was turned a tad more towards us. I'd be verticalizing the perch if it were mine (right or wrong) abut what a pose her struck for you! TFS.
