Really interesting bird! The high angle doesn't help much, and I'd love to see some color in the sky.

Beautiful bird. One that I've not seen before. I agree with Jim's comments. Would also add that you probably don't need f/16 to get the bird sharp. You paid the price in ISO and shutter speed, and there is a resulting loss of feather detail on the bird.

Beautiful bird, just love the colors! The hi iso and shutter speed may have hurt you here with sharpness, looks a little soft.

Great looking bird and congratulations on finding him. I agree with the above comments as it does appear a bit soft on my monitor. Thanks for sharing.
