The eye contact is nice. The quality has fallen a bit due to the crop. Thanks for Sharing.
Its good you got it perched on the ground. Liked the head turn and the eye contact. Wish to see it feasting :).
I too liked the eye contact. It would be good to see engaged in some other behaviour like eating. However, one needs to position very quickly as it can finish off a small prey pretty fast. You can experiment with different compositions. Less space at the bottom can look good. Thanks for sharing.

Nice shot. Nice details, like the others in the series. Agree with Bibhav on the IQ loss though. I would have liked to see this as a horizontal.
