Gene, very nice low angle on this lovely lady, and the raised crest and raised tail are the icing on the cake. A beauty.

Strong eye contact, raised crest and tail make this image, Gene!
Detail is superb with the 850 too.

Great pose and detail Gene. I am guessing it was a bit windy when you took this shot (or the bird was very excited).
