My wife and I just got back from two weeks in England and Wales. I took this photo near Barnouth which is located on the northern Wales coast.

Hey, Stephen, welcome back home! You're lucky to have had the opportunity to get some species from overseas. You can bet that if I ever get that chance I'm reserving some time just for that! Nice shot, and I hope you have some more to share...

Nice shot, Stephen - beautiful bird.

It does appear a bit underexposed.

Thanks for all of your comments. Tupe you're right about the exposure. I was using my Sigma 50-500mm and the sun kept coming and going. I've tweeked the contrast and gamma a bit so have another look.

Very nice. That's the ticket!

Great looking bird here, wish the setting could have been cleaner for the shot but sometimes you have to take what is offered and I would have taken this shot if it was offered to me :)

Thanks to Tupe, Mitcom, Marc and Eric for the new comments.

Eric, most of the birds were landing on the other side of the bush so I was fortunate to get this one "clear" shot.
