Yes but it's natural bokeh without added computer blur.

I like the sharp twigs and berries next to the subject, ...is there any chance you could flip it in Ps so we could see the front of the Buzzard?

Unusual sight in the trees at the bottom of our garden....8 Magpies.

Apparently the saying is  “8 for a wish”. 

I wished they would come closer....but it didn't work.

Need a longer lens?  Wishing for a 600mm?

No.

That was right at the wide end of the zoom to get all 8 in the frame. If I used the extreme end I would have a shot of 2 or 3....and you wouldn't have believed there were 8....so maybe an unrealistic wasted wish.
o.O

I did look but it's all white on the other side. ;-)

Theres a couple of buzzard regularly sitting on field posts near the supermarket we visit. Will see if I can get them to turn and face me on Sunday. :thumbs:

Thats all white then! :lol:

You must have a very rural supermarket, or very urban buzzards?  Looking forward to a frontal portrait.

Living in the country I rarely see buzzards, Perhaps I'm not looking in the right places.  I saw a small but rather nice murmuration last week (not of buzzards! LOL).

While at my friend Bob's near Cartmel last week I spotted an unusual bush growing in the thicket of a small, dense woodland which looked completely out of place, Bob called it a pheasant berry bush, he didn't know the botanic name but it's actually Leycesteria formosa, the Himalayan honeysuckle, just growing wild in Cumbria. It attracts birds and deer for the berries.  I intend to photograph it when it flowers.
