Gene, super pose!  Love the body language with the angling feet and fanned tail, great facial expression, too.

Really cool banking pose. These aren't easy shots even from a blind with numerous subjects. I was expecting the details to pop when i open the uncompressed version as they often do with your files. This one looks like the main focus point was the far wing leaving the rest of the subject a little soft. I could see trying some selective sharpening on this one. Looks like the details there just needs some adjustment. Cheers
Thanks for looking,
