swainson's hawk

[Eddy Matuod]

30D + 100-400 L IS, handheld, ISO400, 1/1000 sec, f/7.1, AV mode. Thanks for viewing.

Nice pose and details. I might put the bird further to the left in the frame and would have preferred the horizon not to cross the bird. You can post images up to 800 pixels which makes it easier to enjoy and comment. :) Keep them coming!

Nice image. I like the sharpness of the bird and that you can see it's eye clearly. I agree with Axel on the position of the bird.

Nice bird - BG would be good - as noted the horizon cutting the birds head off is distracting.
