Thanks Belinda and I am pleased you enjoyed the photo. It is a difficult proposition to try and capture both a bird and the environment they live in. Hope you are having a wonderful weekend.
Oh, my, what a lovely day! I must say his eye-profile immediately made me think of the Wedgat Eye, of Egyptian antiquity (I have a reproduction sitting right where I can see it)!
Hi and it was a nice quite lovely day. I know many folks prefer wildlife shots close up I find it challenging and fun to try to represent the bird/animal in their environment as equal and getting that over the shoulder look like the wedgat eye you mention seems to happen quite often was the bird give you a little glance to confirm they are aware of your presence.

Thank you, Mike. We are opposite here weather-wise…cool and rainy. Rather unusual for July, but what is ‘normal’ anyway? 😉

Even worse is the fact many people I know consider me abnormal thus I risk the far of becoming normal. 🙂
