Carme, maybe, the shot could be a little bit sharper, but this is a nice capture anyway.

Great note.

Carme,
Hope this pest stays far away from Canada.
It is very well focused. I agree with "livios". If you sharpen it a bit it will show much better.
Would you like me to do a W/S for you?
Best regards,
Mario.
