Excellent capture of this striking bird. We don't see too many here in Pennsylvania anymore. There used to be quite a lot of them. Now the State manages them, producing many thousands each year to be set loose in the fields and woods for hunters during hunting season. Not many survive the hunt and few if any actually reproduce in the wild anymore.

I love how this is almost a natural black 'n' white shot.

This one is lovely! I love the foreground bokeh, but I especially love the soft vignette. Perfect sharp detail as always too!

Great detail in his feathers (as usual!) and just enough negative space to emphasize his tiny stature.

Great color and detail! I wish he would have looked at the camera!

Maybe I'm just a sucker for silhouettes, but I love this! I like how the tower is out of focus to give the silhouette good depth.

In comparison to those thorns, he must be tiny. Imagine being able to land there and miss being stabbed - very clever. Really nice picture.

This is absolutely beautiful, and you have caught them perfectly to be unobstructed by the foreground reeds.

Love the composition of this, and the sky colour is a lovely backdrop to the silhouette.
