    Old School, I love the bottom two pics! The only thing that bugs me is that branch above him. But the lines of his beak and wing are really nice.

    Thanks Emily,
    I see what you mean about the stick. It could be easily to clone out.

    Cheers,

    While the branch is a little distracting, I love these anyway!

    I am not a clone or a cloner, so I say leave it ;)

    It would be more "natural", eh?

    Love that 3rd one! The angle of the beak and wings - great! It seems more alive than the typical "portrait" shot.

    What's a Loupe for anyway?

    Oldschool this is a super series. What a fantastic opportunity to take photos of these type of birds, i agree with perhaps getting rid of some of the twigs but, hey! they are great!
