I'm having to go back to earlier this year for some images, as there has not been very many subjects to photograph at present ( hopefully that will change soon). Anyway, the male bunting is a favourite subject, due to it's colour, which is quite striking, but changes partially to brown, for the winter months in the Southern regions ( Mexico- Central America). Always great to see and hear them during the Spring-Summer.

This is a beauty Paul. Hopefully you'll get a change in opportunity soon as well. Nice one.

Beautiful pose and image. The little bit of dandelion puff in the beak adds to it!

Yes, everything comes together beautifully in this lovely image, Paul - the seed in the beak just ices it!
