    I think this is the original LBJ, but it has its own beauty and job in nature, Regards Loukie

    Nicely done but for the head angle. (See the Head Angle Police thread in Eudcational Resources). With the bird's head turned away from you, the head is in shadow.I do like the alert posture.

    Can add the lower body seems a little dark? Not sure about the -2/3 exposure comp, seems more like even at best Fill flash would have helped !!!

    Good pose with the exception of the head angle as Artie mentioned. I'm with Alfred about the -2/3 EV here. I might give the bird a bit more room in the frame too. Thanks for posting!
