Well done on this rather interesting-looking bird. I always love seeing new species to me. Nice flight pose and the prey is a huge plus. ENvironment worked out nicely.

Great shot!!
Very nice light, great flight pose, and the meal in it's beak is big plus.
Well done.

Very interesting, sharp and love that eye, beaut looking species with the ruddy colored down swept wings, food in the beak is always a great addition. Liking as well threinclusionnof the tree top to add more interest than just a plain sky

Interesting crop Brendon. Personally I would have included less of tree top and more sky. Motion and catch a bonus.
