Excellent Uncle Gus,
I like the up close and in your face pose...:D You have sharp details with good color rendition and great head angle and sharp eye...congrats...:cool:

What great details! and eye contact! I think I would clone out the one little bright spot in the beak.
lovely image!

Hi folks;

Thanks for looking at the Curve-billed Thrasher.

Cheryl, the white spot is actually a drop of water, I'm sorry I missed it as it would look much better cloned out as you suggested

Best regards

Uncle Gus :)
