Love the eye contact! The whites look great.

cool pose and details, I like the view of talons and eye contact. well done the stump to the right is a bit distracting but a great **** overall

[Doug West]

Agree with all of the above. I would add, I'd remove that stem growing out the
back of the head of the Snowy.

Great to see the claws and the slightly wet feathers on the head adds interest, Dan.

Hi Dan, very well exposed, and just love the eye contact with those lovely yellow eyes. Im fine with his surroundings, but would maybe remove the piece of grass coming out the center of his head.

Another vote for removing grass above head. Excellent IQ. You gave us a great look at the talons and feet as well.

Yes, the skinny branch on top of the head was the first thing I saw. Love the stare and soft focus.

Thanks for the comments, funny, I never even noticed the branch above the head, I just sort of look at
the whole scene.
Snowy season is probably over, I hope they come back next year!
