    Great image, David. I like the light, perch, details and head angle. I'm wondering if the color temperature is a tad too high. Thanks for sharing.

    Very nice. Love the head angle and the sweet BKGR. A crop from the bottom to a near-SQ might work too. The head looks a bit over-lightened...

    Beautiful. Love the pose, the soft light, the background, and the sharpness.

    Super nice Dave. I like the whole image a lot : nice pose, beautiful background, nice perch. After reading Artie's comment I wander indeed if you used something like hightlight/shadow adjustment on this?

    Cheers,

    Philippe.

    Hey stranger, lovely presentation. I have not seen the bird, so I can't comment on the lightness issue.

    We have a place full of chicks for you around our area ;)

    Very nice image, Dave! I had a few of these flying around me the other day... not really to spooked by human presence which is nice.
