Nice pose, framing and details in the dark plumage. TFS

Nice and sharp - looks good with the 2x. Pretty slow shutter, but it seems to have been enough here. The yellow eye is great but too close to the left hand edge of the frame. I would try shifting the crop to give the face/bird more breathing room.

I like the eye, but it is too large and too tight for me.

Thanks for the comments, this one is near full frame with a small crop off the right.

Nice Colin ,love all the detail you got out of the bird. Repost is better. TFS

That yellow eye really pops against all that black on the bird.
