Hi Jim,
I like the wing position and the tones on the bird. Nice image.

Good job tracking this speedy bird. I do prefer a higher wing position personally, but this works as well.

Hi Jim,
I am on the road traveling and viewing this on my laptop so take my comments with a grain of salt!
The IQ seems a bit compromised to me. Is this a big crop?
I am OK with the wing position. Good HA on this one,
Gail

Thanks everyone for the comments. Gail this is around 80% of the full frame. It wasn't tack sharp, I will post another image tonight that might look a bit better.
