    A lovely array of colours on the little guy, and the pose shows them off nicely. Sharp, and good to see the surrounding snow in the BG, and on the perch.

    Hi Glen what a great seasonal image. Beautiful colours and defenition on the bird and I just love the background and habitat with the falling snowflakes completing the wintery scene. It sure looks very chilly and I admire you North American photographers operating in those temperatures.

    Gorgeous shot Glenn - a beautiful bird on a great perch with a lovely background - can't ask for much more. I particularly like the snow and frosted needles.
