These guys have been back on territory for a few weeks now, but I haven't much time to photograph them. I finally did have a few hours last weekend, and practically jumped for joy when I saw clouds coming in to create overcast conditions:). Although I got some nice calling/displaying poses I really dig this pose so I thought I'd post a non-traditional, non-calling "static" image of this RWB.
Nice head angle,sharpness and exposure, with good details in the blacks. It is amazing how much like these guys suck up. I like the composition with room for him to stare into.
Will the color come up in the wing flash later, our is this a younger bird?
