Hello everyone. Well it has been a while since I have seen one around, but in this particular day I spotted two. Light was a little harsh, but I really like the alert pose.

Nice one Robert. I agree about the alert pose. Head is turned just right to avoid shadows from the harsh light. Great exposure and detail. I'm not crazy about the squarish proportions but not sure what I would do about it.

Harsh light well handled Robert, lovely in all aspects including a splash of blue sky to set it off nicely. Trying to find a different crop, it's a difficult one, but I think you've chosen the best comp

I like the pose, sharpness and exposure. Not many options for cropping. Nice image Robert.
