African Stonechat (Saxicola torquatus)

African Stonechat, image taken by my fiance.
I had to get my fiance into the photography game as it is wonderful to enjoy mother nature together. Well, she took this picture of a African Stonechat at Rietvlei dam on father's day (Only her 3rd time holding a camera) and needs some feedback on her attempt. I could not belief it!
