Female Snail Kite
Went fishing this morning on my boat with out planning on taking any photos but she flew by so I grabbed a quick one. I believe (?) she is a older juvenile.
No fish either :(
Edit: repost sharpened per Sids suggestion.

Very nice image. Like the full raised wings and great background. may be a little bit more sharpening?
Very nivce light there, and wing pose, I would try to bring her eyes up, but other than that I like it very much.
Great light and pose. The repost looks oversharpened on my monitor. It would be helpful to leave the original and reply to your own thread with a repost. This way we could see what you changed and make suggestions.
Wonderful BKGR. Nice light and wing position. Wish that the head had been turned a bit towards you. In addition, the face could use a bit more sharpening.
Which lake?
