    Well, anything from South Africa makes my heart warm. I love the country and its birdlife.
    This image is very nice. Sharpness and colors in on place. Bit of head turn would be nice but like it as is.

    Not going to mention another "head turn" as already done. Great shot Dave. Lovely light and sharpness.

    One of AR's resident fulvous. Good light and exposure on the underwings Dave, and this is sharp. The open beak adds, and great work on the BG.

    The head angle has been mentioned. Any ways I wish this one would be in my files. Love the warm light and the open beak.

    Not the perfect angle, but well captured. I like the landing pose very much!
