Well, if you only get one bird, a raptor is always good.
Great eye, soft light and BG colors.
Sharpness not bad for shooting through window glass.
The perch does rather overpower the subject. I might try a mild crop up from the bottom to reduce the bulk of the perch.
At least the greens and grays on the perch match the BG and bird.
Cheers

Jeron, I like the IQ a lot. superb BG and head turn. soft feather texture is very good. agree with Randy that some can be cropped from bottom. If you have, I also suggest adding a bit on the top side.

nice look and a great BG, there is some noise in the plumage.

Thanks for your comments guys!
I have to agree that cropping the bottom slightly would be an improvement and i do see some noise too in the plumage but it was hard to get rid of that.
