    It was early morning on Marco Island, this owl had just scampered out of the burrow, stretched, and began to yawn. Comments and critique welcomed and appreciated. Thank you for viewing.

    Nice Image. I love the Yawing Pose. Thanks for sharing.

    How big of a crop was this image ? Can you also share the uncropped version ?

    As posted, I think about one inch less below and added above would work well. I love the angle you got on it, and a great view of the inside of the mouth - pretty neat.

    Excellent moment of capture, Joe. Tack sharp with great tone and colour plus perfect background. Really interesting to see the inside of that mouth. Lighting has worked well here too. I think the composition works fine but could also see Daniel's suggestion working too. Great image! Thanks for sharing.
