Flying red grouse

Taken while out getting images of the grouse in the purple heather; and taken as an opportune shot.
c&c welcome,

The image comes up on here much darker and colours flatter for some reason than viewing the file direct on the monitor? - and yes opening the 2 images on the same monitor they look like completely different images !!??) - the sky is really a lovely light blue colour, and rich colours in the foreground
(same monitor, with the same file size )

:)

techs - 300mm, 1.4 con, ISO400, f5.6

Have you left the colour profile as RGB instead of converting it to sRGB for the web? Usually it does not make a great deal of difference, but sometimes my files have looked dull when I have uploaded them for exactly that reason.
