As the country comes to a standstill with a bit of snow the wildlife just carries on.

Light Might Not Have Been Great But At Least You Got A Chance. It's Been Total Frustration For Me Today, Wanted To Bunk Work To Go Shoot Deer In The Snow At Bushy Park But Couldn't Get There No Bloody Transport Running ARRG

nice composition. the black bird hoppin along the white snow if a great capture.
Again like =Oceansoul27 said, that bit of grass is annoying, i would usually suggest greyscaling the photo, but i like the rest of the grass there as it add some sort of depth to the photo.

Thanks and glad you like it. The grass blade is annoying unfortunatly you can't be picky with wildlife and especially birds. somtimes one shot is all you get.

I don't grey scale or convert my images to black and white unless I originally intend them to be BW shots

Great shot, the bit of grass annoys me a bit, I suspect there was not much you could do about that at the time though.

nah very little mate. I have other shots but I put this up first and I wanted to emphasise the grass and the snow depth
