Hi Mike...

That's a really special pose you captured. You've also managed to captured the subtle colors of the feathers.

Very nice work.

Not quite as nice pose as LD got, but it's nice to get one with its head out of the mud. The second shot is what I usually see.

A wild Parakeet spotted on my walk this afternoon. There are quite a few of these in the UK now believed to have bred from pets that were released into the wild.
