    I enjoy these guys and when you get them in the open like this, you normally come away with a winner - as you have. Good sharp detail, and pops nicely against the BG. Well captured mate.

    What a treat! A new bird for me, and photographed so well. All the details are there, the light could scarcely be better, and the angle is perfect! The bird is looking our way, which suggests he may have noticed you. Where were you? On the ground? In a car? In a hide?

    Not much to critique on this one Dumay, geat work, maybe a little better body turn would have been nice, but at least you have the head turned.
