Nice capture. I like the details in the head, but the wing feathers are a bit too dark.

I really love the position of his head in front of his splayed wing. Appears to be taken at the beginning or end of the day due to the lights on his neck, beak and tail. What a great shot! I chase these guys for two weeks every summer when I visit Northern Minnesota and I hope, one day, to get a shot as cool as this one.

Was this a real bird landing or a stuffed one at a museum? A really nice shot either way
