Bill, you managed to get the best poses out of your birds! I love the bird and the perch in this image although I wish there were a bit more room at the top. I'm not sure about the BG - it feels a bit too faded to me but let's see what the others think.
Hi Bill, great pose indeed! Feels a bit tight in the frame all around to me. I think the bg saturation is ok, as it matches the fg, but might want to lower its level a tad. Is there a bit of noise in the tail feathers?

Nice image and application, Bill.
We have a pair in our pond behind the house, but they keep sitting on the HOA goose decoys, so the perch is not as condusive! :(
Like your light frac work. Just enough to make it work.
Like the pose, and the only things I might change is more room at the top, and clone out the stick on the LLC. Otherwise very nice.
Very nice work as usual, Bill. I love the pose and all the feather details. I agree it could use just a tad more room all around. I might also sharpen the eye and beak just a little. Very nicely done.
