Or is it half awake? It's the old half a glass of beer argument, instead with birds! :-O

Nice one Tom. :t:

Now how many people would have wiped this off their camera on seeing the eye closed or indeed not taken the picture. It's the difference between a bird pic and insight and artistry. If I had a favourites bank this would be in it. There is little in the shot but it conveys so much. Would make an ideal picture card in my view. Great work and lovely presentation Tom.

Thanks everyone

Adam, half a beer probably more useful than half a bird? lol

Adrian, thanks for your observations and input :t:
