    Hi Tom

    Great incoming action, like the birds pose and great detail in both the white and black feathers. I would consider cloning out the top as it distracts IMO but many will disagree TFS

    Great angle of incoming BIF. Timing and exposure spot on with this image Tom.

    Great shot I like it as is, maybe consider a tad more sharpening on the head and body?

    What a funny looking bird. I love the two-toned background. Exposure & sharpness are very good. I feel though it is too centered with too much space on the right and not enough on the left. Content-Aware-Scale will do its magic very well on this image. JR
