    Stunning image Aardvark

  • Many thanks Pat, the bird is fine but the backdrop could be a lot better!

    I think the background is OK, as it makes the colouring of the goose stand out

  • Sure but neatly cut grass would be better than gravel and droppings!

    Wow! What a beautiful bird Aardy!! Wonderful capture!!

  • Thanks Mike, I find this specie difficult to photograph, I think the patterns in the feathers confuse the autofocus.
