    Like this one a lot Sid! Did you draw this bird in with some meat? I'd like a bit more canvas at the bottom of the frame if you've got it.

    Yes. Baited with chicken legs.

    There is a big clump on the perch right after were I cropped. I did not want to include that.

    Sid:

    Very well done. I normally find that poses like this don't work great because of the head merge with the body/wings, but because of the lighter bill, lores and eye, I think it still flies well here!

    Happy New Year!

    Cheers

    Hi Sid, I do like this pose, and the light, detail, colours and sharpness are superb. Another vote for some added room below.

    Great eye contact and very well captured. Wonderful details and color in the face. Not a fan of the square crop on this. I would like a bit more room on top. IMHO.
