another image of my good friend "Rollie" .. this image was made just before leaving the place.. We spotted the bird on a low perch and parked the car a bit close to the bird. After giving me a couple of "oh! u again ??" stares, .. Rollie was happy to let us stay there. :):) im still dodgy with sharpening.. hope this is not overdone...C&C welcome. thanks!!

Always fun to have a repeat cooperative subject. I just wish you had pointed your camera down as I find the bird much too low in the frame. As you are still not sure about your sharpening I will say that it looks a littel overdone with some "scrunchy" effects on the plumage and some jaggies along the bill.
