PP involved blurring the BG and some curves and sharpening. And crop. Couldn't seem to get a clean image withut a lot of background distractions. Would have liked to put the bird in the lower left corner, but not enough real estate there.

Thanks for viewing, C&C appreciated.

Hi Kent I like the position of the bird in frame, just fine. Very good pose with a strong head position, light was harsh but did well with exposure. Can see some post processing work in the periphery Excellent image I like it a lot !!!
