Very nice image Frank. The light conditions are fantastic. The feather details are really good, as is the POV and HA. The lovely perch with the snow makes this image special. Well done and thanks for sharing

Very nice light and colors on the eagle! The widespread wings are also a plus.
If I would have to point something on this, I would say the white snow, on the perch, is a bit bright and distractive.

This is a beautiful image.
Love the IQ, the detail and that wing position.
Was this bird attracted by bait? Not criticizing just wondering!

Spectacularly beautiful. Love the soft light. A bit of NIK Detail Extractor on the snow would help.
In the future, please let folks know in the original post that a given bird was baited.

Yes, excuse me.

Hi Frank,
Lovely shot - nice to see all those underwing details.
So what did you use as bait - I think I need to get some!
Thanks for sharing,

Great wing and tail spread. These common buzzards are very underrated but look spectacular

Nice image, lovely wing spread, would like to see the one before it just as it touches down. Exposure spot on too

This is beautiful Frank. Love the wing spread and the outstretched feet in preparation for landing. The techs look great also and I like the snow covered perch. Well done
