loved the angle and the exposure here...wish the feet were seen too(but then...it's not an ideal world)... i would personally prefer a little less space at the bottom

Mital, Very nice details and interesting bird. Nice clean BG. Do wish we could see the feet. Nicely done. It's always nice to see such a variety of species from you. TFS.

As mentioned above, sharpness in this one is really good. I like its inquisitive look and BG. I would crop a bit on bottom.

[Duane Noblick]

Excellent details and I love the "alert" stance of this bird.

Mital: Beautiful and sharp portrait of another bird I'd never heard of. I'd take some off the top and in the process tighten it up a little. Thanks.
