Liked this of a Juvenile Magpie developing it's colours and feathers. Small scruffy head though.

Just after the sun set last evening I saw in the distance a flock of Oystercatchers, at one time they were in formation. Flying over Morfa Nefyn.

Morning Shirley
if you just reduce the noise and lighten the image it may look better - plus to improve even more if you paint around each bird just to smooth the edges if will help with definition
I've just reduced the noise and lightened the image - 5 secs work - a few artefacts introduced so a little longer need to improve further

what computer "programme" do you use to process your images Shirley
Normally in the processing software that comes with the camera, or some free software, or Lightroom or Photoshop there is a slider for noise reduction

I use Corel Paintshop Pro X6, I've found the slider for noise reduction.

It is just a matter of "playing around" with the basic adjustment sliders to see what they do and then applying that to your image .. ask on here many will give advice if you want to know more

I use PSP X6 as well. I select out what I don't want to NR and use one setting (I think it's 32 on all the boxes but I'm not near the computer I have it installed on to check) for all my images. As Bill says it's just playing to see what works best. My computer is so old that altering the settings takes for ever, hence one standard setting. Probably not the best way to do it!

Overtaken by LTT's today and a few Blue Tits decided to take part in the action. Keep an eye out on the bottom, for birds waiting for their turn.

Mutual Preening..
If birds aren't eating , they're usually preening their feathers, which got me thinking about those feathers they can't reach - seems you enlist the aid of a friend..
They look like they're both enjoying this, I guess it must be something like and itch you can't scratch...
