A delightful image of this colourful Wren peeking out from behind the plant stem. Very pleasing composition and super detail. Very nice indeed Stanley.

Congratulations, great shot of this little bird. I know how hard is to potograph one of these, very elusive and keeps inside the bushes and moving all the time. Excellent job Stanley!
