This is a pretty big crop of a Crested Caracara.  When I saw this image, it reminded me of the movie Pulp Fiction when John Travolta was dancing with Uma Thurman.  Photo was taken 13 January 2022.

1/6400 sec
f/6.3
ISO 640

Well done! Love how it is framed by it's own wings.

My husband is a big fan of Tarantino and especially Pulp Fiction - so got the connection straight away when I showed him this! Brilliant shot, Gene - definitely unique and beautifully done!

Cool moment and I like the tight crop, I can see the "Pulp Fiction" resemblance. :)

Wonderful image. Very unique sort of peek a boo look through the feathers. Probably a bit fortuitous but great timing and an excellent crop.

This is an amazing close up, I love how it seems to hide in the wing feathers.
