This juvenile male saw a gopher close to us as we were shooting a Peregrine on a pole. Got a few nice frames as he came in before he plunged into the weeds. I got lucky and have a little gap between the beak and the right wing.

excellent light and dynamic pose, I like the wing spread. the head can use a bit more sharpening.

Hi David, great concentrated stare on his prey, and I do like the inflight pose. Good to see the colours and detail on the RTH, and the hint of clouds add interest.
Very nice pose. The exposure looks good and the BG works.
Excellent flight pose with very nice wing position.I like the HA,tails feathers as well and composition.

Nice hunting pose and excellent detil, David.
I like what appears to be a hovering pose. Good comp and the BG has some subtle patterns that I like. I'd be tempted to lighten some of the shaded parts of the near wing and perhaps add some saturation to the eye and legs. Very nice overall.
Nicely done..
Lovely flight image David - agree that the head could be sharper and I'd lighten the image a smidge, but overall great!
Cheers, Greg
Nice action captured, but I don't think extra sharpening would help as it was probably not sharp to begin with. TFS
Wonderful low-angle light! I love the pose!
Excellent flight pose but itdoes appear a little soft on the head.
Thanks allot everyone for the comments. This shot did look a little soft on the head after I processed it for the web, then I sharpened it and posted. Looks like it needed a bit more . Thanks
Excellent flight pose and sharp details.
