Very nice detail on the bird. Nice exposure and DOF. BG works well with the subject. Nicely done.

You cannot save time, you can only spend it wisely, or perhaps, freeze a moment of it forever in a photograph

Very good shot, especially like the tongue out of the prey (not).

Antino, that's quite the prey item, really neat behavior image.

Harsh light but the prey in the beak makes up for it. Well done.

Beautiful bird and capture; and with prey no less. Nicely done.

One of my very favourite birds well caught. We have to take what nature offers but I am not a huge fan of direct bright sunlight but what can you do? You lucky man, wish I had them near me!
