I was going to leave this one for a while, try some ground animals, but I am sick with the worst flu I have ever encountered so this is all I have edited at the moment. I do have some kangaroo and eagle shots, as well as a goanna, when I get better I will post them.

I did some shadow/highlight to lighten the shadows.

They do pick some really interesting places to perch, don't they? I kind of like the framing of the branches here. I'd lighten up his fierce eye just a tad, though.

Nice osprey, they are a good subject, I think because he is looking off the right side of the image, I would like a bit more room on that side, or conversely, less room on the left, or could wait til he turned looking to the left, in that the branch on the left is nice too, but I feel it is an element that maybe distracts from the whole. Just my thoughts.

Very majestic. I really like the tree too. All together, the Osprey, the tree, and the blue sky make a wonderful image.

P.S. I hope it's not swine flu, and I hope you feel better soon.

You must have been pretty close to this guy! I see osprey inland all the time, they do hang out around lakes and rivers as well.
