VEry nice calling pose. The details are nice. I would have liked it had you moved a bit to the right to get parallel to the head. At 270mm that is one close bird. Thanks for sharing.

Nice calling pose photographed. It is quite difficult to get it in the clear. The eye contact is nice. Agree about moving a bit more to the right. Where was this photographed? Thanks for sharing.

I agree with the previous comments. Why 270 mm? How much crop is this? Where was this photographed? I wish you had got the entire bird parallel to the camera or sensor plane. That would have helped in ensuring that the depth of field is adequate and getting the eye in focus. A bit more space at the top would have been good. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,

Nice and in open and bonus is the calling pose you have got. Always difficult to get them open here in Pune. I agree with the angle and wish light was better.
