You have a beautiful hawk in your back yard.....and one that can really stir up the birds. The bird looks good but the BG seems to be a little noisy. I know you have to photograph them where they are but I wish at least the bright area above the head were not there as it's distracting.
Was there a chance to move well to your right to avoid the merge of the diagonal branch and the head and the neck of the bird?
later and love, artie

I have the same thing going on at my house - Cooper's flying in to take advantage of the easy pickings at my feeders! You've done a nice job of capturing this magnificent bird but I personally would love to see the whites a bit more "boosted" and maybe inch the contrast just a bit.
