This bird has arrived in our garden and taken up semi residence.
It is a little bigger than a blackbird and is quite agressive towards any other birds, actively chasing them off all the time but I have no idea what it is.
Anyone?

The diagonal out of the bottom right is nice, maybe would have been good if you could have worked one of the roof lines into a corner.
Nice colours the beige against blue and the blue in the windows.
As mikew more a study in angles the skeletons are irrelevant as they are insignificant.

Lennardinio - Not HDR but I have manually held back the exposure on the area with the sun to reduce clipping.
mattcambs - No2 is perhaps oversharpened
Thordell - You are right about 'step' I shall try and clone that out t may imprve the image.

C&C welcome
This was the first shot, there was something good to be had here though I had to trespass a little to get the shot so rushed it. I think i could have done better. The shadow of the tree spoils it slightly for me.

This second shot of a footbridge seems a bit cluttered by branches to me and thepost in the water kinds of detracts from the eye.

The third shot was further upstream and was taken as an afterthought. A little further up from here somebody was skinny dipping. I spared them a shot though.
