Nice set of preening shots, Peter. Well done with the processing too.

Pretty, and a nice sequence. Whites look good and the grass in the LR doesn’t bother me as it provides an anchor and fills a space that could look too empty. Might be interesting to include even more on the bottom.

A nice preening sequence, Peter. The grass tops don’t bother me as they follow the line of the rest. Excellent work on the white plumage.
