Very cool capture, Greg! I like the low angle, light and that we can see the raised tail.

Beautiful.....and I'm envious as I've yet to have an opportunity to see one in breeding plumage. Well done.

Excellent shot and this works very well as a vertical frame. The pose, details and the eye contact are all so good.
The green all around puts this over the top.
