beautiful!!

Many thanks for the comment! This one is quite a contrast to the next image taken a couple of minutes later. You can just sense what is going on in the head of the bird!

This one has quite a different feel than the second image. There is as sense of two birds here, rather than one. Again, I love it! :)

You're right. Because the bird is leaning its head slightly towards the camera, the effect in the mirror is like there being a different bird there, with a more inquisitive look!
Sorry not to reply earlier as I had replied to the other image comment, but this was worth an extra comment. Many thanks for your interest!
