Thanks for the bling Don. You surprise me sometimes :-) thanks for the other nice comments and faves.

By the way I didn’t detect that I captured the bird flying away to the left, this was a delightful bonus that I noticed after I uploaded it, I was too busy enjoying watching the baby pigeons splash around in the bird bath.

Lots to like here. But the birdseye in the center is a bullseye for me!

The eye, almost dead center and very much like a water drop is fascinating

lovely sharp and detailed feathers! The downside is that the background is too distractive. More blurriness in the background would have been perfect - but you can not have everything...
