I like it. The scale works for me because it's in the foreground and the wings are widespread.

Oh! Thank you so very much, Carole, Paul, and Heather...I really struggled with the bird, but thanks to Heather, my mind's more at rest! Rather enjoyed painting it...might be tempted to do others!!!

A revisited complicated picture which neede some added interest, I spent quite some time trying to get the glazes on the kingfisher right, Never painted a bird before, only ever made quick drawings from life. I'm now thinking this may be disproportionately large! Comments please!!
