    Stunning shot with great wing and tail spreads; and that scream. Another winner. If I had to search for a critique it might be to take a bit of whiteness out of the blob in front of the bird's right wing.

    I agree with Bill about the white spot, but other than that this is just too good. What a perfect wing and tail spread, and screaming pose with an ideal head turn. Congrats man!

    I love the white spot and feel it adds dimension and interest to the image. You really outdid yourself here, Arash! That flight pose with the fledgling looking toward you squawking is just over the top.

    This is an amazing image Arash. The wave does not bother me at all. I've been looking pretty hard at this and have found a flaw. There are no markings on the middle tail feather.

    The image shows how magnificent birds are. Every feather in it's place and doing it's job.

    cracking shot! Topside details are superb and the screaming pose and head angle tops it off nicely.

    interesting to see the lack of barring in the centre two tail feathers. Lovely reddish tones on this juvenile too

    The white doesnt bother me

    Brilliant capture, Arash. Remarkable display of all the feather patterns of the dorsal side. Wonderful flight angle, calling, and fine details.
