Are the two water drops (?) to the rear of the bird intentional ?

[Ofer Levy]

Stunning light, colours and awesome pose. Maybe try to define the catchlight or even make it smaller as it makes the eye look slightly soft.

[Dave Blinder]

Really outstanding capture. I see a slight halo around the bird.

[Betsie Storm]

Beautiful feather detail, and the red eye. Like the water colours too. Thanks for sharing this one, Jim.

You caught the bird in the right position. The complete downward stroke here is a winner as its showing a lot. Congrats!!
