Still working on my buzzard project. 5 different birds so far. It's quite warm for this time of year so the birds are not coming regularly as they did when it was freezing and snowing. I will work on this project for a few more weeks. Let's see what it will bring.

Very nice Ed :toast:

If there's a bit more empty space on the left on the RAW then it would be even better.

Well done.

THe detail melts away perfectly in this one allowing this crop to work.Like the look over the shoulder.You are getting some great results with the wild buzzards. :toast:

Hi Edwin...that's pretty good. Really like this one. Agree with a bit more space on the left but a minor nit.

I really wish I had the time again to spend putting out food. I am waiting however for some proper weather (it is like spring here) to try a more hit and miss approach. A shot like this I would dream of.
