This is to show Ann what I do when I can't PP the inconvenient grass/leaves/twigs etc... cut it off and show a close crop instead!!:-O
Some out of focus blades of grass cut right across his middle and tail, and I'd not a clue where to start to try and repair it, so you've got a close-up instead of the whole bird today.
I did try to re-position myself to get the grass out of the picture but it just wasn't possible without getting my feet wet, or falling into a bush!

The sun was still straight in front, and gone 4pm so getting low in the sky by this time.
