    I like the strolling pose, the iridescence and the hint of white flowers in the surrounding grass. You handled the slightly harsh light well. TFS

    That hen looks pretty! I do find the grasses a touch bright and flashy, but I like the walking pose, head angle, details. The Wild Turkey population has exploded quite incredibly these past few years up here...how is it like in your area?

    Beautiful mid stride capture, John. Love the look on her face. Wonderful detailed feather patterns.

    Techinically there is not one thing wrong with this image. Yes, you handled the light well. But for me this ia an example of a 100% ordinary image. Well done but ordinary. Am I allowed to say that?
