Image taken last week as she left her eggs unattended for only a brief moment. She landed on the perch and made a quick set of calls before hurrying back to the nest. The male arrived within minutes to take his turn incubating the eggs.
Way to go Robert. I love the spread wing position take-off and those killer clouds. I think that a Contrast Mask on the bird's face would brighten and sharpen it.

I like the debris coming off the perch, pretty cool. Good pose, and I like the cloud in the BG. I wish there was more detail on the thigh though, but though with the shadow.
Great looking take off pose Robert! Love the wood flying and the sky colors. Well done
