    Captured in early evening light.

    I removed some troublesome twigs from around the perch, leaving a basic BOAS (bird on a stick).

    7D, EF400mm f/5.6L
    Manual mode, f/5.6@1/2500 ISO 400 WB 4500K
    AI Servo autofocus, hand-held no flash

    Terrific head turn on this guy. Shows that hooked beak off nicely.

    Handsome looking bird and perched wonderfully well, blue sky is extra nice, that beak looks like it's meant for serious business

    Appealing simplicity here. Nice look-back HA. I'd be tempted to move th subject just a bit more to the left of the frame but still good as is.
