Fledgling gets an itch...

[David Roach]

EOS R EF400 DO I 1.4xtc II f8 1/2700 ISO 800
This fledgling is at least a month older than the last posted. Colors are moving to the adult phase and hair(plumage) on head is gone. I was in close to get details but constrained by gazebo roof from backing off a little. Thus the clipping of the toes and the left wing when scratching began.

Thanks as always for helpful critiques. Looking forward to more of same.

Hi David, oh how i wish you did have the gazebo room for all of this young one. Id wish for more below and on the side. Very nice details on the bird, maybe a lift of shadows on the near black wing feathers and also id get rid of the maybe floating feather between the kneecaps. TFS

This would have been really nice if there had been room for the toe and the wing.
As it is, this is a delete for me...:tinysmile_shy_t:

In addition to what others wrote, maybe a different focus point or higher F stop? Maybe just my laptop monitor but it looks tack sharp on the legs toward the back, but just a bit soft from eyes forward.

Exposure and detail on the legs and body is excellent, but the bird is so cramped in the frame. If you have more canvas, go to it! Head also looks the slightest bit soft with focus falling behind it.
