Hi Valerie.
It is wonderful that you are here with new picture. These bird leave our country in winter. It is really close to you. Having long telelens It is great luck to get such magnification. Details are great. However, bird does not look like happy one. My warm greetings and best to you and your son.

Hello Valérie,
A nice one of a European Starling in winter plumage, probably one that nests in Sweden but overwinters in your area! We don't have them in the winter!
Good lateral POV taken with excellent sharpness and natural colours.
Thanks and kind regards,
Ivan

Welcome back, Valerie!
It is good to see you posting again. This picture of a Starling taken through the window presents a fine impression of its plumage. The bird seems to be in a thoughtful mood, going by the expression in its eye.
However, seeing you and Denis out there in the snow makes my day. Both of you are looking so very cute! I hope I'm still around when Denis posts his first picture on TN.
Thanks and keep posting.

Only rare pictures are perfect. The part I love is that you caught it in a almost human moment. It is as if I could read it's mind and feel it's old and hunger. Much like St. Francis yes?

Hello Valerie,
very sharp shot of the bird especially on the head. The shiny dark eye is so well seen. The pattern of the feather is so lively.
A nice capture with features well presented.
A big welcome back!

Regards,
Foozi

Dear friend Val,
First: CONGRATULATIONS!!! You are a MOTHER. God has granted you a bounty... a trust. Take great care of that treasure.
Lovely image of the STARLING.
What a story [note]... who cares if the window is not PERFECTLY clean. It is WONDERFUL to have you around ... once more.
We will be in Europe in mid-June; am not sure if we will be in France. I'll look up your whole family if we do pass by.
Best and warm greetings from Bernardete and this your servant m.
P.S. I kept a copy of you and your LOVELY HANDSOME child in my files. BEAUTIFUL x 1000 BEAUTIFUL!!!

Hello Valery,
Now you placed a photo and I almost missed it :-( But a beautiful photo in good sharpness, natural colours and depth of view. :-) I hope there comes a lot more.
What a fantastic photo in the workshop of you and your son.
Regards,
Peter

Hello Valerie,
For having to shoot through a window, the detail is quite good. It's nice to see you are able to find the time to post, even though you are very busy being a mom these days.
We have European starlings year round here in Ohio. They really are beautiful birds when you see them up close with their iridescent colors bursting forth under the right lighting.
Love the WS image, you can be very proud of such a fine looking son. I see he has blue eyes which is neat, since four of our six grandchildren have blue eyes also.

Bonjour Valérie,

Intéressante photo de cet Étourneau sansonnet. Tu as su arriver à un résultat tout de même satisfaisant en "shootant" à travers la fenêtre. C'est sur qu'idéalement il aurait fallu l'ouvrir ;)

Dommage tout de même pour la grosse branche qui cache les pattes...

Bye et mdp,

Michel

PS. Tu peux être bien fière de ton petit bébé que je trouve fort mignon... Bravo!

Hello Valerie,
You do not seem to be visiting often. Just to say that I came across this image and it is beautiful. Well done and do post more often.
