Swanuck, Beautiful bird. Would have liked a bit more head-turn.

I agree with Gene on a little more head turn, but a good image nonetheless.

Ah i was wondering what happened there. Glad you took the advice and posted the second image. I will be completely honest here, i saw the thumb nail this morning with the head turned slightly away and didn't even open the image and then when i was browsing back through them this afternoon it was like the bird magically turned to look at the camera. This one works way better. A fantastic species. What country was it photographed in?
Thanks for looking,

This second version with the head turn makes all the difference — excellent.
