Snowbound!!

Well Fons, now you know how I feel here in this frozen place ;-) What a lovely shot of this Dove. The ones that come to our feeder like to sit after eating and just gaze out at the world, safe in the bottom pan. One little aside though, I would like to see a little brighter and a tad more contrast, what do you think? Again Fons, good stuff.

Thanks for the comment Bevellee,
I stayed in side for a while because of the low temperature and snow fall.
When this dove landed on the tree I was just in time to make a this picture.
The camera is always set -up and ready to shoot....;-)

What a wonderful photo, Fons.
The shot has been done exactly at the right moment!!!
Contrast between the snow and the bird work very well.
Congratulations
