Nice moment captured. Seems it was just about to take off. Liked the upward stretched wings and the way the talons are just touching the branch. Thanks for sharing.

This is a nice frame. It is just taking off with some of the talons in the air. How much of a crop is it? Some more details especially on the white tail feathers and head would have been awesome. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,
