Just realized that this was my 3000th post on BPN so I wanted to thank everyone for all the great help and suggestions over the past few years. I really appreciate it.

Congratulations and thank you for your comments and wonderful photos.
This one is top! Nice light and BG tone. Beautiful sharp bird in action & flight. Like the pose and eye contact too!
Cheers!

Wowser! Color, light, action, sharpness, natural history...this one has it all. Love the cricket prey...Perfect sharpening on the bird. Can't really image a nicer background color scheme to go with the frontal view of this species. If the wing had not merged with the perch it would be too good to be true!...regardless, it's an amazing image.

Holy excrement indeed! What a fantastic image Dave. Amazing light quality, killer pose and I love how well the BG complements the colors on the bird.
The in-mouth prey is icing on top. I'm digging the shadow of the tiny little foot on the wing there :)
Thanks for all your wonderful posts and your constructive and encouraging critiques. Congrats on the milestone and looking forward to the next 3K

Thanks again everyone! Im glad you guys and gals like this shot. Im glad the sharpness looks good because with shots of small birds like this, getting the sharpness right is tricky, at lest it is for me :)

A beautiful BG, love the contrast of the color of the under belly with the BG. Great timing.

Exceptional David, great, vibrant colours with delicate soft pastels in the wings, plus having the food in the beak is the icing. To have a complimentary BKG too is just, cracking work.
Agree with Alan - awesome!
