    Not sure about the ID. I will be happy if one of you know much better than my knowledge.
    Took it two weeks ago at Nakoru National Park, kenya.

    Mark II 600mm 1/640 f8 ISO125

    Thank you for looking.

    Very cool, I like the pose and the comp, and the head angle is right on.

    I would lose the little blue strip on the bottom though.

    Very good looking bird. I like the overlapping feathers along the back. I don't mind the shadow on the eye but would probably brighten it a bit though.

    Very cool species. I agree about the sliver of blue at the bottom.
