Hi folks ... back to the Swiss Alps
Image captured on a decently lit late morning , as the Choughs always appeared quite late to that location .
They were always looking for food as the location was frequented a lot with humans
Wish I had a bit more room at the foot of the frame

Super shot, it took a second or two for my eyes to accommodate but you have some super detail in the dark plumage. I like the pose and the setting - well done.
Lovely details under an exposure situation that would trip-up some. If it were mine I'd eliminate the blade of grass jutting out from the bird as well as the grasses in the BR corner.
Wow! What a bird and a wonderful image. I am fine with the room at the bottom. I'd lose the grasss strand that is poking him.
