Thank you all for the comments, greatly appreciated.

Nice comp. and great detail. Maybe just a touch over exposed????

Lovely wingspread Bill, and the light shows the eye up nicely. Well captured.

Nice pose and relatively sharp. Big blue/cyan cast... Looks like too much SH/H on the underwings...

Did a lot with the re-post...

Slightly challenging exposure with this one, Bill. There are some hot whites on the head but I suspect the underwing area was under-exposed and needed opening up in post as revealed by the noise in the primaries. May be worth making 2 versions from the raw and combining in a pseudoHDR to maximise detail. There is a broad soft halo around the whole bird (?artifact from shadows/highlights). Having said all that I really like the photo, especially that intense yellow eye.

I like the pose here Bill. That one visible eye is riveting.

YAW Bill. I forgot to mention the wide white halo but Tony backed me up.
