    A nice fresh juvie. Sharp. Good exposure. Three big problems:

    1-the bird's head is angled away a bit.
    2-the BKGR is too close to the bird and thus has too much detail.
    3-the near wing position is NG--it's a pancake. Wings full up or down is preferred for side to side flight images.

    Also, just a bit too big in the frame.

    Ditto Artie on all points, but you did a great job panning the subject as it is sharp and nicely detailed.
