Egyptian Cruise (Alopochen aegyptiacus)

Egyptian Geese at Strumpshaw Fen. I am not sure what this image looks like on other people's screens. I have just recalibrated my monitor, using different gamma and temperature settings, and it looks a bit bluish and bright to me. I might have to have another go. Any feedback would be appreciated.

"Swim like an Egyptian"... ;) Looks good in my monitor, not particularly bluish I think... maybe slightly bright on the up-left corner? But I wouldn't think about it if you don't mention it! Very nice shot of this happy pair, Ron!!! :t: :t: :clap:
 
Thanks for the comments. It sounds as if the calibration is not too far out. I have been used to my monitor having a slight warm, yellowish cast to it but it looks colder now. Perhaps I will put a vest on and live with it for a few days.
