Great looking bird Glenn
i love the HA and the details on the bird
composition works nice and so is the sharpness
sweet eye and the prey item adds a lot to the image

if only something that can be done is toning down the perch a bit ,
howver i love it still as presented

Comp is outstanding , and the food puts it over the top.

Looks good. I would like to see the image larger though.

Different and wonderful! (A friend of mine has a hairdo like that and I've always been a little jealous of it!)

My first reaction is it could stand a slightly looser crop top and bottom, but maybe that would take away some of the drama. Burning down the perch on the right would keep the eye more in the frame, but that's not a major criticism. I like how its color matches the hairdo.

Super shot Glen. Love the way the bird is captured in the lighter BG.
