Hi Joe, nice angle, subject, BG and composition but it looks a little washed out to me, maybe some curves/exposure adjustment or add some contrast.

Nice feeding pose, and I love the wave in the bg, as I did in the previous post. Yes, it needs some curves adjustment or more black.

[Frank Schauf]

Nice shot with nice angle.

Great pose,nice detail on the bird, foreground a little bit of a let down.
