A well detailed portrait of this sweet young chap, Peter.

I am sorry to hear about the fires.

What a shame to hear about the fires in your birding sites Peter.

I hope this beautiful wee Fairywren was not part of the fire area.

Looks like its working at getting some lovely blue feathers in. Marvelous frontal close-up with excellent focus and dof. Top-notch Peter!
 
splendid photo of this lovely youngster with impressive feather details, Peter, top class, many tfs!!
Sorry to hear about the fires, looked on the web and they mention that some of the fires would be criminal, so sad. Keep safe!
 
A wonderful little Wren capture Pete. Brilliant close up and detail, well done.
