An excellent image Bob and presumably captured whilst on the toilet LOL. The only thing that I find distracting (the eye sort of immediately gets drawn to it) are the two small white spots under the left wing. Have you spotted these and considered cloning them out?

Its just a few seeds being blown up by the wing, I did see them but just decided to leave them in I could clone them out but in the full size you can see they are seeds so I decided to ignore it.

I built a 4*4*5 high wooden shed, its great having the wooden floor and movable hole for the lens. I just have to let the local birds get used to it now. I'm hoping for more species later in the spring and when I get tired of shooting birds I have a super tool shed for the garden tools or play house for the grand children, it cost less than £100 from a local sawmill and is built like a wooden out house .

Hi Jim, I hope to be taking part again soon, I vote most weeks . life is a bit hectic since I retired I have much less time to myself, I think every one wants to make me feel wanted " or they'r taking advantage of my helpfull nature" and the rugby is keeping me busy but that's almost done for the season. On an up note I got one rugby image posted in the Edinburgh Evening News and have a few more contacts in news papers talking to me so I could be very busy next season too

Bob

Glad to hear your doing well Bob I retired about 8 years ago and spent 2 years walking up the mountains.
Never tried to get another job but ended up being talked back and just like you do not have much time.

Jim.
