No nits here on this perfect image Jim.
Great portrait shot, Jim. Good DOF at F5.
Love the bird and especially the dark fog BKGR. Needed pop provided by NIK Color Efexx 4 Tonal Contrast. Used a contrast mask to sharpen the face and eye. Lovely image design as well.

ps: a bit less head turn so that the head was perfectly square to the back of the camera would have been ideal in my book.

What a bird ,what a beak ! Excellent capture and portrait , Jim ! Arthur's version gives it great pop and improves an already great image.
Hi Jim, once again, excellent exposure on the darker plumage, and lots of colours and detail to look at on this species. Your pano crop works well to suit the pose.
