Excellent shot Wayne. Great details, colors. I would maybe crop it differently but thats just my take on it. Thanx for sharing.

Wayne, what a beauty!!

Love his heat turn and the rain is a big plus. Maybe I would take some off the left of the frame.

I see a slight green cat on his white feathers, but judging by the position it may be the reflection from some green grass under him.

A keeper for sure.

Great mood, BG and pose. Is the green cast due to grass?
