A cock reed bunting seen this morning at Coombe Hill Canal & Meadows nature reserve in Gloucestershire. This little fellow was perched in a tree beside the disused canal and was singing his little heart out
Cock Rock Ptarmigan (Lagopus mutus)
Photo taken May 9th 2017 using a Panasonic FZ300 camera. 1/1300 @ f2.8 EV -0.66 ISO 100.
Stopping for a nicotine break I reviewed some images I'd taken earlier in the day & particularly liked this image which I immediately wrote the Haiku now embedded in it.
The colour version for those interested can be found for comparison in my Flickr Ptarmigan Album.
I actually prefer the monochrome version, probably because I started photography with B&W films and still prefer mono to colour.
Other than a minor crop, changing from the colour original to black & white and adding the text the image is unaltered.
