There's a female on my local reservoir but she's all on her own......................
I've never seen a male and never appreciated just what stunning birds they are.

Responses much appreciated

Jan, I'll send this male over to your reservoir with some mistletoe then...

Lovely shot. I think the light not being strong bright sunlight has helped.

Many thanks Robin
Yes, the light was typical December gloom so I'm sure it helped (no blown highlights this time!)
