One thing that you wouldn't find in my album is animal photos. That's because I don't think I take good animal shots and don't do justice to their beauty. This is an effort to correct that
It's finding them for me that is the challenge... They are usually all folded into the foliage somehow. This is a great open clear shot of contemplation. I think the blue sky is a nice offset to his B&W colouring. Good job.
Perhaps you didn't take a lot of good animal shots in the past (I don't know, didn't check) but you were more than successful here! I love the composition in this shot
