Thanks for looking, Rick

Hey Rick, Like the comp, but could use Noise remover on the bkgrn. I shoot with a D2XS also so your presentation is important to me. What lens did you use - it seems to have delivered a very shallow DOF for the F stop that you used.

Rob, shot was taking with a 70-200/2.8g, VR was off. I was about 12ft from bird.
Regards, Rick

Nice sharp focus on that gorgeous beak. The frame seems a bit tight, more room all around might improve.
