When the Skylarks are back, Spring has come. When not high up in the air, they tend to sometimes perch on the flowerbeds - which makes for interesting settings. Thanks for viewing, more shots can be see on my blog post [https://www.hansoverduin.nl/spring-and-singing-skylarks/] . Have a nice weekend !

You’ve got to be kidding me. Spectacular. Those in-focus flowers are just so, so good. And the green strip in the upper BG is a great compliment. The small-ish bird in the frame work perfectly in this photo. My only nit is that I think you could add some blacks to the bird. I’d select it and just run a levels adjustment. Incredible photo.
Hans, Another spectacular image among many that you have posted over the years. They really are exceptional, and this one is at or near the top. Of the Skylark images recently posted on your blog you have chosen the best although all others are nearly as gorgeous.
! Cheers, Hans
