A striking shot, Paul. Wonderful look back pose at the nesting cavity, with first-class eye contact. Beautiful details and surroundings. Excellent work!

Paul, great look back pose from near the nest hole, the bark textures are interesting, as is the nice little slice of green BG.  Excellent eye contact too!
