    Chas:

    Even the bill looks heavy, solid!

    Nice dorsal display, snow in the air a plus, enough detail in the snow to provide a sense of depth.

    Wish he was angling a bit more our way.

    Cheers and look forward to more!

    Wonderful comp, and I love the snow in the air. Great flight pose, which might have been even better with a slight turn to us.
