Re: Rook
The colours certainly do pop. Not the most attractive bird but these images are the best I've seen of a rook.

Re: Rook
Nice shot again,of perhaps a much neglected bird. Just for your info Stan, the Rook, called as the Crow in Sri Lanka, is a "sacred bird", as it is a natural scavanger. One is not allowed to kill this bird in that part of the world.Canon 6D; Canon 760D;Canon G15;Canon 40mm f2.8(Pancake);Canon 50mm f1.8(ii); Canon 17mm-40mm f4L;Canon EF-S 10-18mm f4.5-5.6 IS STM;Canon EF-S 55-250mm f4-5.6 STM lens;Canon 24mm-105mmf4L IS;Canon 70-300mm f4-f5.6 L IS USM;Kenko 1.4x HD TC;Canon 430EX ii flash;Giottos tripod;Manfretto monopod;Cokin P filters + bits and pieces!

Re: Rook
Nice shots. They are one of my favourite birds with great personality and are remarkably clever. I have a Rookery not 100 metres from my front door and I have witnessed (and photographed) Rooks unhooking a seed feeder form it's bracket so it drops to the ground where the they can get at it, they've done it so often that I've had to place that feeder in a less accessible location!
