      Great portrait! I feel that the shot, especially the bird is lacking a bit of contrast to really make it pop. Definitely a shot worth reworkign to get the max out of. WD!

      Thanks Mark. Not rare, actually quite common, but if you don't know the call it is unlikely that you would see one.
