Nice pose an head angle, but I particularly like the bit of red at the base of the bill.

Sharp on the face where it should be. The pose is nice. Like the rain streaks.

Sharp and sweet as can be. I'd love just a bit more below.

Sharp and sweet as can be. I'd love just a bit more below. Clipping the tertials is a no-no for me. Love the dark BKGR.

Cool to see a close-up of this colourful falcon. Good solid BG. I'd prefer more room in front of the subject, and maybe a 1/2 stop increase in exposure.
