Nicely done James. Like everything about it except the dark vertical line on the right side of the image. Thanks for sharing.

[Axel Hildebrandt]

Very nice find and details. I agree with Doug regarding the dark line at the right side.

[Del Cockroft]

A very nice capture despite the black line, good detail and colour and complimentary BG.

James,

I agree with the previous comments but would also work to reduce contrast on the perch. Contrasty light on the bird was handled well.

Nice, Jim! Some nits have been mentioned--but it is very nice.
PS (I am down in AZ--but no time to shoot :<(--maybe next time?)
