    Sharp and the colors complement each other. I would prefer that the birds not overlap each other and it looks to my eyes that it could use a slight CCW rotation

    Hi Peter, there is variation amongst different races of Steppe eagles when it comes to the size of the gape I believe, some Steppes have bigger and deeper gapes than others. It is a bit confusing for sure :) Hope that helps
    cheers
