I noticed that Waxwings have been regularly sighted in Weymouth over the last week, so I popped down earlier this week and was stunned by how trusting these birds are. They allowed an approach of 2-3m without batting an eye.
The light was dismal on the day that I got this shot, but I'm quite pleased with the result.
Not a lot of processing was done, apart from some contrast and sharpening done in in DPP.

Judging by the catchlight in the eye, my Speedlite 550EXwas used in #2 (Manual at 1/32 power .....I think).
Comments and critique are welcome.
