Nice flight shot,i would crop a bit from the top!

[Daniel Cadieux]

The bird looks good and exposed well. I would only take some off the top as previously mentioned. There is also a sharpening halo apparent around the subject.

Hi .. I loved the pose and the action and agree with cropping from top .. but it's really nice!

[Caroline Darmo]

I think you did really well on the exposure Jacqui, & the bird looks sharp. Would like to see the far wing a little better, nice shot.

[Terry Olmsted]

I also think you did very well, Jacqui. My only question is the bird ID - looks more like a hawk to me, but I'm no expert. I would remove the sharpening halo as previously mentioned.

Nice details and eye contact. I agree that the bird is too small in the frame and there is a slight sharpening halo.
