    Default Stonechat (hen) [Saxicola torquata]

    I could photograph this stonechat when foraging on Texel. I hope you enjoy it.

    Hi Frank,
    Nice pastel color palette. I like your composition and the perch.
    Bug in the mouth always a good thing! I find the bird a bit over sharpened.
    You forgot to put in your EXIF data,
    Gail

    Well done exposure and pose. I agree with Gail on the sharpening.

    Cute pose, nice bonus insect, and I like the perch. Good background too. I could do without the OOF leaves at right edge...easily removable if you wish.

    I would probably also remove the oof leaves.
    Nice BG and pose and the perch is really nice.

    Hi Frank, great pose showing off his catch, and against a killer BG. I like the placement in the frame, and agree with Gail that the chat is a touch oversharpened.
