Pretty much perfect. The pose, the details (even eye ring clear), the simple composition and BG all work for me. TFS

[Sanjeev Aurangabadkar]

Very nice Jon, I like the perch, the calling pose and the head angle. Good details.

[Bill Dix]

Great calling pose. I could imagine taking a bit off both bottom and top.

Hey Jonathan, it's good that Barney gets you out. You're on a roll capturing interesting images while walking him. No nits from me. Thank you for sharing.

[Jim Crosswell]

I like the calling pose, details, perch and sharpness. Very well done Jonathan.

[John Mack]

Quite nice overall. I like the calling pose and the lichen covered perch. Detail looks very nice.
