A great shot, I love the cockies! No need to ask your location, must be here in the land of Oz?

A pity about the date info superimposed on the pic, I would turn this feature off if I were you.

Cheers,

Gerard

WELCOME to DPS
It's a good shot...good that there's more space in front than in back...good DOF, looks like good focus, but my eyes are acting up, so not sure on that one...
And a beautiful bird to boot.
