Hoopoe, Upupa epops, a study

This is a collection of shots of the very tame Hoopoe that stopped in Collingham, Yorkshire for a couple of weeks. Apparently, it's the 1st one seen here in the last 40 years and attracted loads of people and even got a spot on the news and in the newspapers.
My usual processing involves Neat Image for noise reduction but I've just started using Topaz DeNoise AI and so far I'm really impressed, to the point of writing a review which can be seen on my website https://kevinagar.uk/ at https://kevinagar.uk/t​opaz-denoise-ai/
