    Pleasant image. Nice to have the whole bird in the focal plane. Being from the Midwest, I'm having a hard time figuring out what the prey item is.

    Jack I'm a whole lot further east and I don't know either! Super pose John, I especially like the trailing leg and adherent water droplets. Hey what is that is it a shell fish out of the shell?

    Good walking pose, complete with mystery prey. Well captured. Could use just a tad of CW rotation, but no big deal.
