Old bird by judithg

Old bird

Apart from a nice local walk with Rebecca and a trip to the Apple store with Adam and his broken iPod I've been at home being domestic. I did find some lovely 'shrooms out with Rebecca but Rachel said 'everybody is taking picture of mushrooms' so I ventured down the garden to see Betty and her pals. She spends most of her time chasing the new girls away from food - seems to have forgotten her job is to lay eggs. We are, however, getting eggs everyday now from Amber - small but perfectly formed. Rachel arrived home safely from Birmingham for the weekend so all is well.
PS I added one of the comic book effects - it's done something to the bokeh bits but left Betty more or less unharmed - don't know if I like it!
Great clear shot with nice details

There is a swirl of blur in the background that could be a phantom chicken doing handstands! Betty is beautiful!

Betty is looking very clear and quite beautiful in your shot. Almost like butter wouldn't melt in her beak!

hmmmmm the bokeh looks a tad dodgy with the filter judith. Betty on the other hand looks beautiful :)

What a pensive expression Betty has. I love the clarity of feathers and shine in her eye. Fav.
