An amazing photograph. Perfect body and head angle, love the leaning forward pose, and what a bird. Could use a bit of a contrast boost. And I forgot sharp!

Cool-looking bird, I don't think I've seen this species before, thanks! Great angle, details and soft light. I might remove the catchlight in this case, just a personal preference. Thanks for sharing!
Marvelous detail in the feathers and the red eye adds a great accent of colour. The crakes are impossible photographic subjects which really adds to the cachet of this beautiful image.
