    Great pose, details, eye contact and dangling feet. I would try to get more details in the blacks. Did the bird just take a bath? The legs look so wet.

    Wing angle is eye catching -- very nice flight shot

    Default Don't Vultures Excrete Down Their Legs For Cooling?

    Maybe it NEEDS to take a bath :)

    Good details and interesting pose ! A bit of white fringe seems to be showing around the bird though...fixable anyhow.

    Detail in the blacks look acceptable here. Would do a linear burn on those bright legs and feet. Love the wing position and sharpness. When I tilt the screen back I do see a halo along the upper edge of the wings. All in all I like it.
