    You handled the light very well. Nice calling pose.
    I am going there tomorrow.

    Interesting and different, for me. Big beak for a little kid. Probably eats a lot.... Is there more detail to be pulled out of the eye?

    Nice cute image. Excellent detail but would also have liked to see some eye detail if it's there. Well handled with the light at the time.

    So cute! You did well with the light, but I'd also like to see a bit more in the eye. The low POV and the calling pose are just great.

    I don't know if I can pull anything from the eye. I will go back and play around with the image.
