Thank you very much Camera :)

Nice capture.....how are you doing Doug ? Are you still fighting " City Hall " as they say? Have you moved yet ? I am getting ready for Christmas how about you ? Is Santa bringing you something nice for Christmas ? Lol

By the way what lens do you use for your bird shots? They always look very sharp and clear? Do you have any snow yet ? I know I am full of questions I hope you don't mind? I am just a chatter bug that's all. That's why I have the award for chit chat ! Lol

Thank you Glenda much appreciated

Great shot, beautiful subject! I really appreciate the information you add to your photos. I have a picture of a mute swan taken in June, that looked dirty, now I can assume it was moulting also. Thank you for sharing your expertise!!!
