Captured in Etosha NP, Namibia, Africa, May 2017. This raptor had just consumed prey and then flew to the top of this low bush to have a look around.

I like the pose and it is a pretty neat looking bird.
Pose and stare are very nice, but the harsh light is really tough. Would love to see a bit more of left wing as well.

I like the dynamic pose but the harsh light worked against you, tough to salvage the image especially when the pupil is shaded.

Great bird, terrific BG and perch but the light was not your friend.
