    I like head shots too, and this one has lots of character. An additional round of sharpening to get the fine detail crisper would be nice, and a bit of fill would have been cool to give some details inside the mouth (although hard to predict such a pose!). I love this species' eyes, and it looks good here.

    Wonderful close-up look at one of these marvels. Wish I could get one into my backyard.
