    Lovely landing pose Craig. The landing vulture is super sharp. I like the vultures at the bottom TFS.

    Craig, perfect wing spread in this one. exposure and details look very good. And those distant hills always create a nice BG at this location.

    Do you have some more at the bottom to include?

    Magnificent !......super sharp and love the mountainous backdrop, those detailed wing tips look like daggers, perfectly timed shot, only thing I can think of to slightly improve would be to see more of the feasting vultures on the bottom visible

    Great wingspread and BG.
    IQ and sharpness are excellent.
    I do wish the bottom vulture was not cut in half. Any more room?

    I like the sharpness, wing position and BG. Another vote for more room on the bottom. Nice image Craig.

    You captured a great pose of the landing Vulture, Craig.

    Excellent shot.
    Just love the pose of the incoming vulture, sharp, excellent details, great background, but do wish for more room below.
    Still an excellent shot.
    Well done.

    Wicked landing pose here!! Love the perfect curls on the primaries. Great BG, techs, details. I actually wish the main subject was the only bird in the frame though...
