This image of a female kestrel was taken in early March in Santa Barbara. There were a couple of distracting branches right across her body and wing. It took me a while to learn how to use the patch tool to remove them. I wish there was eye contact and a catch light and the perch was not so messy.

Original horizontal, cropped to vertical, added a little bit of canvas on top. I decided to crop close because the perch is quite messy.
I wish I had switched to an F10 and ISO-1000 for more shaprness.
Appreciate your comments.
Thank you
