I was just about to say what a lovely perch she chose, Graham! A lovely image.
 
Did work on an almost identical picture but mine shows a male stonechat. I have to say now that this is an excellent photograph. LOL.
 
Got my first female of the year today. This is a brilliant colourfully detailed pose, Graham. Three wonderful captures, well done.
