A fabulous image of this beautiful winter visitor, such wonderful detail, colours and clarity. You've timed this one to perfection to catch him downing the berry and the clear blue sky makes the perfect background

Catching up at the moment Keith and so sorry I missed this perfect shot, very surprised it didn't make at least an HC,
