Like the intimate eye contact, good overall details. The diagonal perch extending out of the frame looks good, this
would also work well as a vertical. A slight halo is visible on the lower end of the perch.

An absolutely beautiful raptor. I really like the intensity of the eyes looking right at the lens. Great BG to boot.
