Had some bad bad weather here in Suffolk, We Had to dig the Niger seed feeders out from a couple of bushes and a tree which had collapsed due to the amazingly heavy snowfall we had. This poor little thing was one of around 10 which were telling me off for not having their morning feed ready for them.

Lovely capture Matty and the snow sets it off a treat If anything imo I reckon you could squeeze a bit more detail out of the bird with some minor adjustments

Well neither am I Matty, but I had a quick play adjusting highlights > levels > curves and applied a bit more sharpening. Not sure what you think :shrug:
