Always On Alert

[Rich Ikerd]

While the burrowing owls of Cape Coral are pretty tolerant of people, there are always on the lookout for other hazards. Always fun to watch and photograph these little guys.

Was he looked for the dreaded commercial airliner? Very well done but you have cut off the virtual feet... From where I come from, we need to include parts of the bird that might be hidden by grass (as here) or water or whatever, and to have a small border beyond that. It better give the image a feeling of completeness. Later and love, artie

Great pose, details and BG. I agree that it should be placed slightly higher in the frame.

[Jody Melanson]

Agree with Axel and Artie on all points.

Great pose and another vote for more real estate at the bottom :)
Great to see you posting!
