This is a face only Mothers would love. Nearly full frame image with a sliver taken off the top and left. Cloned out a couple of bright spots in the BG.

Selectively reduced the highlights on face, chest, feet, and perch. The sun was a bit hash.
Appreciate your comments.

Must say...I love the hairy legs hehehe.light, detail extra good Loi, maybe a little tight in the frame for some folk, but I like it as is, if an image is sharp and detailed ..fill the frame I say ...nice mottled backdrop as well.....I 'll stick with our pet Canary thanks

like the pose here. details & BG are very good. might just tone down the perch a bit.

Loi,
Very nice - great pose, sharp detail, and nice bg. I really like vultures, I think they get ignored a lot because they are not 'cute' (and possibly because their diet grosses some folks out). Anyway, this is an excellent shot, congratulations.

Very nice shot indeed, the only suggestion I have to offer is to tone down the perch a little more.
